This is history. We will be riding chain-less bicycles by the time someone does it again.

[@KandiKlover]

I mean it would be fun to do that now anyways. Kinda like skiing. Now pedaling, just a nice smooth flow down the hill and try to maintain the momentum and not crash.

It's crazy to realize how much more potential you've got when you have to rail into the turns like that when you know braking isn't a option. Gwin definitely went for it! Not to take anything away from him, Harts run in the rain is the most inspiring for me.

he doesnt need a chain anyway hes goin downhill lol seriously speaking psychologically as soon as he realised he had no chain at the beginning he probably thought need to push it even more and take more risk which obviously helped

[@Domspun]

I know exactly what happened in his head " Well I guess I need to brake less". It happened to me on many on a few occasions on the trail. Went faster through some sections because I knew there was a uphill after.

[@brianwright9514]

Yeah, you can see him pumping the bike in a few places too...
