The WORLD CHAMP Interviews the G.O.A.T. - Loic Bruni and Greg Minnaar Get Personal

The current Downhill Mountain Bike World Champion, Loic Bruni, is interviewing the rider of his choice at each World Cup DH round in 2019 for his Outspoken series with Vital MTB. Episode two features the Greatest Of All Time, Greg Minnaar. Following a horrific start to the season in Maribor, where Greg failed to qualify for race day (a career first), he sits down with Loic to discuss all aspects of mountain bike racing. Career longevity, bike tech like 29ers in downhill, being on the Santa Cruz Syndicate with Steve Peat, Nathan Rennie and Josh Bryceland, the boredom of training and even the art of crying are touched on. When the person conducting the interview knows the elite-level stresses and struggles as well as the subject, incredible insight is the result.

[@remymetailler]

French accent at its best! Two legends.

Remy the goat

[@HairyMTB]

Awesome interview with my two favourite riders. Bruin, before you joined spaz I was almost certain the syndicate were going to pull you into the team....would have been great to see both you and MR MIINNNN racing together

[@trailbogan]

"Now that Finn is starting to be good..." (3.10)

[@avalanx]

My two favourite riders by far! Ridiculously skilled and humble.

[@MovingTargetOne]

I love the Loic interviews, it feels really natural. Like how a normal person would talk, but with good questions!

[@ride-time]

This is awesome. I'm glad that I took the time to watch this!

[@frankmijares7668]

[@mogulhopper]

As a downhill fan this interview series is amazing , look forward to many more with Loic in the driving seat

[@calypso2niner]

Thank you, Loic and Greg, please keep these great interviews coming!

[@leofinalizacao]

Loic Bruni this is such a good interview! Greg is so calm and composed. Honest chat, great stuff. Looking forward to seeing you interviewing Lorris Vergier!

[@Dolencd]

Greg Minnaar is a total badass! What a guy.

[@zalealb]

if this is the beginning of a series, i am all for it. Loic was very natural while interviewing a living legend, all while also being one himself. great video @Vital MTB!

[@vitalmtb]

here's interview #1 w/ amaury - kzbin.info/www/bejne/laWaZnR4nayZn5Y

[@hardtailparty]

Loic is an incredible interviewer!

[@chrish8871]

Loic I have to complain to your management. Your too nice 👍🏻😆 in a nice way of course. X games mentality I call it. They congratulate each other when they win. They know each other is not the enemy it’s the discipline they are in. It’s the track. The jump. The rock garden. Etc. being a prick to your team mates and other athletes will not help you. There’s a bit of a wall here between these two. You can feel it.

[@Sibert_]

3:15 Watch the difference between these two generations. Bruni asking this question already shows it but even more so when he doesn't really seem to understand what Greg is explaining. A decade and longer ago there was much less ego. Less rivalry. Riders were honestly excited about another rider's performances. Nowadays it feels like it's much more individually, egocentric based. Trying to sell themselves like soda brands. Who has more followers? Who can get the most views on yt? Liked it better before

[@ruckusflow]

Superb interview, more of the same please

[@madeiradriftin4429]

I cant shake the image of Gwin in the back coming for Minnar's spot as the GOAT

[@warummussmeinnameangegeben6502]

Man those interviews are awesome. And I start to feel old, I still remember the times when Minaar bombed the dual with a orange, or the Honda Team. Cant believe he still going and so cool. I want to be like him when I am 37. And.. Am I correct in that Minaar was once called "fresh prince of air" back in the Honda days?

[@carlstanton2550]

I think you're right, i seem to remember that nickname for some reason.

[@MarkRDKing]

Hall of Famer Minnaar..great interview Loic.

[@charlbekker2378]

Loic is one of the nicest and funniest guy in the circuit

[@petru-georgemedrea]

11:15 GOLD

[@WaechterDerNacht]

Interviews between two athletes are just better than with a journalist that dreamt of riding WC or whatever. The questions are very different. Another good example of this is the interview of Cerdic Gracia with the WRC driver Kris Meeke: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eH6ldpyVlsSVnsU

[@cristobalmunoz9222]

Yeaaa not important you feele est in profudid di the sentiment is fuert for what saverin sey yeaaa is hor or not enough. is difficult disfrut di is to con tods the famous and diner? if you are a beginner in the world yeaaaa good for people rider's milenials baikers and the rider's of the free mountain bike is Heavy machin good day from the Santig of Chile 🇨🇱 nice day saluds tods. 🤘😀👍🚲🚵📹♥️☝️😌☝️🆓🚴😂👌💯🚴🚵♥️

[@thingswelike]

Greg - don't fall into the trap of believing what Red Bull say about what looks good on camera and don't underestimate the audience. Slow awkward tech if explained well can look incredible and it makes the difference between the riders obvious to see. Nobody wants to watch Leogang Motorway in full unless different styles are on show. Educate the audience instead of playing down to what you think they want to see (speed, jumps, etc) I think you'll be surprised.

[@andresbarcaza]

33:52 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@josemorenoporras7506]

at 21:43 I always though you (Loic Bruni) was a perfect match for the Syndicate team instead of Loris. ¿How close or far you were from being part of the SC team?Great stuff,well done Loic!

[@JB-mw5rg]

2 of my favourites!

[@yusrihassim]

This is making me laugh all over again - especially the talk about crying. These 2 fellas are champs!

[@asaapbrocky2366]

More of rider to rider interviews

[@basicwrc]

Great interview with two legends of the game

[@UnicornBikes]

Love the video, but I'm watching this on an actual 21:9 monitor and now I stuck watching this with black bars on all 4 sides. KZbin supports 21:9 natively, please upload that way too.

[@knott4me561]

Greg is been run through the mill recently.awesome

[@mattydarbs8720]

Brilliant content Vital. Keep it coming 👍🏻

[@floimschnee4275]

Awesome interview -- really well done!

[@MovingTargetOne]

Greg Minnaar, just have a look at Graham Jarvis... Hes in his 40s and still at the top tier in extreme enduro

[@carlstanton2550]

And chad reed in supercross. Granted he's not as old, but he's way past retirement age for sx!!

[@anotherwhitegtb]

Oh shit yes. This is one of the best interviews ever!

[@markoaalto9378]

Nice interview!! keep it up Frency ;)

[@aleks2194]

Specialized is really missing a team spirit, i see finn does track walks alone

[@p3ff500]

TBH Specialized Gravity is a bit like Loic's team. Won't be surprinsing to see Finn left it in few years, as the same thing happened with Loris in the past. It's difficult to live in Loic's shadow I guess.

[@bio-metric-1016]

Get roasted Louis 😂😂

[@adriancaldwell]

Loics a natural

[@Dexterbaxters]

[@nyathi777]

Is it just me or do these two dislike eachother?

[@Howling-Mad-Murdock]

Wesley Venter I know what you mean but I don’t think it’s that, just two different personalities that don’t quite gel.

[@aleks2194]

I think greg likes to get under the young new nr 1s skin and poking some fun at him, not many can, but the goat can
