Howie is a legend - "race to train".. like a boss

[@maximkrivov]

Such a great edit. Beautiful 😍

[@tacconelli]

A most enjoyable production, well done!

[@mikecolesvids]

Not a Mtn biker do make my living in college athletics and make my own lame moto vids. I’m impressed with the production and edit. This is the type of vid I aspire to create. And really enjoy hearing the thoughts of such elite athletes and gained a whole new appreciation for the tactical aspects of the sport. Great vid and thanks for sharing, well played! 🏆

[@durangodevo]

Nice edit Keenan, best in the biz!

[@zombierider2794]

These events are so expensive it kind of takes away the coolness of the memorabilia. Like "I paid 2k to be allowed to win this belt buckle" lmao.

[@ironray123]

I hear Specialized biggest competitor is Generalized bikes.

[@Bowhead]

That was Brilliant 🙌

[@danielsaaiman]

Very cool edit!

[@gerryl8310]

Great video all around. I would love to know the S Works Crux set ups. Am looking to build up a Crux myself. Cheers!

[@skiak004]

Sofia's position on the bike is as aero as a body can get.

[@mikecolesvids]

Not into the sport but after watching am instantly a fan of hers. Really cool to hear her thoughts, such an elite competitor 🥰🏆

[@shalakabooyaka1480]

Sofia is a monster. She looks so tough to beat at the moment.

[@angelsaulovelazquez3232]

with the new school gravel bikes, does anyone think someone will show up on a gravel bike for leadville and do well ?

[@jjwa5410]

No, because the descents are so fast they'd need significant travel to be competitive. On the women's side, there aren't enough strong technical descenders for it to work. On the men's side, the geo of current XC bikes is tough to beat.

These opened gravel roads wants me to move off Maui! Here road riding has become very dangerous because the DUI, texting and very agressive DRIVERS ( Locals in particullary)

[@jjwa5410]

It's such a weird dynamic for the women's race; it's basically which of the men they're able to hang on to/draft/work with. If one of the girls is lucky enough to find a guy who hasn't cracked, doesn't mind leading them out or eating wind, they can put in threshold efforts to extremely gap the other women who won't have that same opportunity.

Trust funders, Oh the grind..

[@sasquatchhq5757]

Who are the trust funders? 🤦‍♂️

[@wescheslak9408]

What a poor sportsman 👎🏼

[@sasquatchhq5757]

Who is the poor sportsman? I must have watched a different video than you. 🤦‍♂️

[@fernandog.aguirre2791]

Specialized has a very ugly shape helment! What designers are thinking?

[@tonylochner]

Wow, as a substantial specialized bike owner - 4 bikes 🫡 I salute all three riders and citizens
