*PART 2 IS ALREADY UP ON PATREON at / theloamranger * I have so much that I want to share from this one day of riding, that I had to split the video into two! Kicking Horse is a serious mountain. I hit bigger jumps, higher consequence trails and practically destroyed my bike in the process. Check it out!

It's amazing to see how mountain bike trails are made differently from state to state. I'm from Kansas, and the trails are all a little up then a little down. I once traveled to Arkansas to bike and the trails were a lot of up and a lot of down. And of course in Utah and Colorado it's just all down.

There will always be haters because they’re jealous of how good your doing on KZbin or something. I just started mountain biking because of you, but I don’t have a good bike. But it’s still fun. Is there any suggestions, I keep hitting the breaks when I am going too fast but I don’t see you hit the brakes that much

Thanks Leo! Thats awesome to hear man! I hit the brakes all the time, but it's just more subtle because they're pretty quiet. "Going too fast" is a relative thing, which changes over time. What seems fast to you right now, won't seem so fast a year from now (if you keep practising and riding). There's no substitute for just getting out there and riding as much as possible. Try to ride with people who are better than you! That'll help you progress at a much faster rate. Hope that helps.

I just loved these trails at this Kicking Horse bike park mountain as they seem rocky enough in order for me to feel at home... What a bummer about the misfortune of you hitting a rock with your pedal, I would've been really bummed out as I couldn't have reacted in the same positive and relaxed way as you did at the time it happened. Just subscribed to your channel so I'll keep an eye out on your downhill adventures from now on buddy!
@TheLoamRanger
@TheLoamRanger 7 жыл бұрын
It was great! Well, when you've driven hours to get there, paid for the lift ticket and are at the top of the mountain, you gotta make the best of the situation haha. It felt very strange when pedalling, for sure but it wasn't so bad that I had to stop riding, thankfully! Thanks for subscribing!
@thedownhillerboy
@thedownhillerboy 7 жыл бұрын
Yeah I know, that's how I see it too,but I mean more about the fact that at the time it happened I would've reacted in a very angry and upset way because I know I would only see the fact that I eventually had no other option than replacing the cranks later on,possibly the pedal too which means that the other pedal that is still good would have to go as well,that represents money spending and that's the main reason why the viewers would see and hear me cursing at the top of my lungs for few seconds maybe even a couple minutes there...

Just had to get a new Sram NX crank set myself last week. Got 170 mm crank arms instead of the stock 175, and got a 32 tooth chain ring instead of the stock 30 tooth. You should get the 170 mm crank arms also, to avoid pedal strike
@TheLoamRanger
@TheLoamRanger 7 жыл бұрын
That might be a good idea. Did yours twist as well?
@nathan42694
@nathan42694 7 жыл бұрын
The threading in the crank got stripped cause the pedal got loose without me looking at it in time to tighten the pedal. The pedal (DMR Vault) is fine cause it's steel, the Sram NX non drive side crank arm was not cause it's aluminum. You must have taking a really hard hit is all. That hit sounded loud in the video. 170 mm cranks mean you get more ground clearance, and can pedal faster at the start. Just need a bigger chain ring to make up for the shorter crank arms
@TheLoamRanger
@TheLoamRanger 7 жыл бұрын
Ah dang. Well I'm glad the important part was fine (the Vaults!). I think the part is already on it's way to the shop, so I might be stuck with 175mm for now, but I'll keep that in mind. It's a warranty job, thankfully.

How can you have soo good audio?
@TheLoamRanger
@TheLoamRanger 7 жыл бұрын
I don't use the clear, waterproof case over the GoPro, which makes a *massive* difference for audio quality. You run the risk of damaging the GoPro, but I've crashed hard on it a few times with no case and it's been fine. I've always been impressed with the audio while using this setup too! Thanks for checking it out.

Hey lm. I am new to mountain bike riding and I think it is the coolest thing ever. I live in Chula Vista CA, and I only know of one trail that is good for my skill level. Do you by any chance know of any that will be at a beginner skill level? Keep up the good work man!

Nice! Well, Im not familiar with the area but I'd recommend checking out Trailforks.com and searching your area. It'll show all the trails, what they're rated as (green, blue, black, etc) and also show the topography so you know what you're getting into for climbs/descents. Hope that helps!

Hi, i am å cross-country biker. I was wondering why you aren't wearing bike shoes(those who click in to the pedal)? Anyways love your videos
@TheLoamRanger
@TheLoamRanger 7 жыл бұрын
Hey! Good question. I go back and forth between flat pedals and clips. This year I wanted to put more time on flats, which I find is a great skill builder in general. You certainly don't need clips for mountain biking, although most seem to use them. I'm happy to use either! Although when things get extra sketchy, I don't mind being able to hit the eject button and get off the bike nice and easily with flats. :D Hope that helps!

One question: tires might pop but do tubes??
@TheLoamRanger
@TheLoamRanger 7 жыл бұрын
Delta MB it's usually the other way around. The tires are generally fine, but it's when the tube gets pinched between the tire and the rim that it creates a little hole and goes flat. That's why tubeless tires/rims is so great -- no tube to puncture and the sealant inside generally takes care of any little holes in the tire itself. Hope that helps!

Ya I used to go through tubes like crazy. Also, make sure there isn't a sharp edge within the inner wheel that could be catching on the new tube. Cheers!
