 When Pinkbike decided to follow Buzzfeed's click-bait business model. Also I didn't see any timed stages in that edit so not sure how this is enduro.

 I'm wondering when the exact point you swap from a half shell to a full face helmet? Insane.

 Didn't you realise the video was in slo-mo?

You could tell by the speed of the banjo music. Usually homeless banjo songs are way faster.

 Pretty sure Sam Hill constantly hits “dh speeds” on an enduro bike! Especially when he raced a wc on an enduro bike!

 We rode with Nico a couple weeks ago.. Hadn’t seen him for a while. 3 days later I was still buzzin’ from our session!! Coolest laid back guy with an “actions speak louder than words” attitude. Definitely one of the GOAT’s in the mountainbike world.

 Well underrated. Hands up who remembers when he used to race world cups. Beast.

 @thenotoriousmic: Hell yeah! I used to visit quite a few of the world cups with Nico. it's pretty sad that the Belgian cycling association never backed him for downhill riding. Those cooks only spent their money on cyclocross and road racing. I've never seen a more die hard, dedicated individual when it came to bike riding than Nico.

 Good video, but I like this guy more when he rides his downhill bike. He looks more comfortable and confident on a big bike. Fits better for him.
And is it just on the slowmo or fits the helmet really bad? Pretty shaky. Especially at the end.

 And... after the filming, he went back to his 2015 Scott Gambler with 26" wheels.
