Another one in the bag! Stage 4 was super fun; they call it “the single track stage” and hell yeah that’s true. We were treated with an extra dose for rocky, rootsy, crazy steep technical trails covered with a tasteful amount of slippery mud. Literally Heaven. And with the perfect equipment for the job makes it so rewarding. The Spark with its FOX34 is bouncing up and down, flying over the big muddy roots like it’s a flow trail. The Kenda Regolith tires are keeping the bike pinned, even on (the very frequent) 20% grade slippery uphills. And the TIME pedals are unbothered by the brutal conditions. Amazing.

Thanks Dan. Davos really is an amazing place for mountain biking and I imagine it must be outstanding for snowboarding as well.

Great video as usual! Didn't get what happened to your teammate fork?

@peterwilson1831 2 жыл бұрын

we tightened the headset and i think possibly for a few of the descents the fork wasn't unlocking properly so all i was getting was a locked fork that was blowing off on bigger hits. adjusted the cables after the stage and all was well.

@@peterwilson1831 well, not the best option on that rocky and rooty trails. However, you managed it pretty well.

@bengoyette 2 жыл бұрын

I still haven't figured out what the problem is with the Quarq power meter. It happened again another time and changing the battery fixed it even though it was new already. Maybe it doesn't like the Energizer brand idk.

@radiocontrolled9181 Жыл бұрын

@@bengoyette Yes sometimes the battery shape varies slightly between different brands and there will be a contact issue. I personally experienced that with my XOSS heart rate sensor.
