today brings us to the hard black surface called ashfall attractor is physically demanding to lapse and you're done fast corners jumps and rollers make a pump track complicated to ride fast which is a great place to host a battle between two unique bikes the heart elf fat bike versus the heart out dirt jump bikes the dirt jump bike super stiff build with a single break single speed short wheelbase steep head angle with a set of suspension folks on the front running 26 inch wheels high rolling tires this thing is built for speed next up the fat bike it's big it's black it's fast when it needs to be it can climb 12 speed full carbon frame weighing in at twelve point four kilos front suspension and big four-inch ties get this color code stealth it's phat but fast right enough about the bikes as guys at GM bein loved to do stuff super scientific so we've got two unique riders to participate in this challenge some say they're the same guy but we'll have to find out I'm gonna introduce you to the first one myth says he was born in Zimbabwe his name's Blake it's Blake Sound sin welcome welcome to this today's challenge dude right next up some say you was born in Africa what to be honest in Zimbabwe as well it's Blake Samson whoa welcome welcome right now we've got the two contenders I've got a number of challenges for you guys right the pumptrack comes with a number of corners and carrying speed and corners is super key as well as the feel of the bike in the turn as well so I'm gonna pick a few corners I'm gonna pick this one because this is a really fast corner and this one and that one two corners short one but it's a roller in the middle into this next short corner so it's all about keeping your speed in those turns get down that turn I'm gonna kick it off for the first one and that's gonna be the dirt jump back now down to business cornering watch this [Music] Oh [Music] oh wow Nayla tire pressure maximum 65 years sight that tires not gonna deform in the turn so I can push it so hard in the corner come out with maximum speed wow that was easy it's built for it your turn Fatih good luck Wow okay oh I'm talking about tire pressure so I put 20 psi in there so again a little bit more rolling speed alright let's go [Music] learn it you want to know well the bike choice stand me up constantly in the turn because of those tires kind of didn't want to go over onto that edge cuz you know the tire profiles not okay enough excuses you win DJ blank right Punk Trek comes with loads of rollers but let's get in the air I'm going to choose this straight yeah there's six rollers a bit of an intermediate one but I want to jump them so doubling this one double that one and double that one into the turn the last one's a little bit harder than these two but that's not big enough for you we've got this one right yeah who's first alright this challenge dirt jump bike to watch this man please easy [Music] Oh perfect what about the big gap thank you oh yeah Oh easy fat bike Oh make it harder watch this [Music] girls harder okay okay let's get the first line time then think about that that I don't know get on with it yeah 100 I gonna go that one actually oh wow okay yeah bonus line [Music] whoa whoa no way I think I got it but I'm gonna case and I don't want a case like read that one next challenge is a manual challenge and I'm going to pick this straight so you'll keep the front wheel up as long as possible and potentially try and manual this whole section of trail next who's doing it ha ha ha right Blake did say to Blake and I that we have three goes at how far we can actually go on the manual so that's three attempts of practice I think I've got a chance here because we both could just mess up on the first lump if we're not that good at manually right first I don't I'm very good at that oh wow oh I'm not BJ blink all right birthday he my time be that I think that it's a draw fatty ha too easy that was actually too easy maybe I should mess up give him a chance now I'm winning who cares first makes challenge is all about being creative on a pump track so finding different lines jumping from one section to the other without touching the grass I'm gonna judge this section I'm gonna I'm gonna say it felt like might struggle here let's go but I Fairplay felt like he is actually doing all right he's doing everything I'm doing but we do know the fat bike is built for exploring but is he built for exploring on the pumptrack that is finding unique life and I can see a number of them so I'm gonna show off and show him something from that roller to this landing I'm gonna cross three tracks from you to that one and then from that one into that one from here all the way to that line for that roller over there [Music] oh that one's pretty high and big I like it he might struggle did he say this one no no one's too complicated huh this one Hey look at that that looks simple enough for me whoa odd Claire it didn't land in the dirt whoa that's challenging this one's quite difficult I'm gonna struggle but let's try whoa touch the dirt that's like failure that's like if you touch the dirt that's like lava like burns your tires I don't think I can do it one more go normal guy I can I can do all this stuff what's the owner of our but I kind of make it a little bit more difficult for myself because I'm lugging this quite slow-moving bike around the track but I'm doing it I'm doing it but DJ Blake just makes it look super effortless so he actually wins there but I win because I did all of this challenge right what we've all been waiting for now it's a time run of the whole track so we're gonna do one full lap one way and then do another lap the opposite way around combine the times together hey presto you got a full-time run get on each bike the race is on we got a rolling start two laps and what I mean by rolling start is that's the start line there you roll through it to cut the line you come back you go through it again to stop your time right full race mode right now right now smash it Oh oh wow so there you go ladies and gentlemen another versus video just for you entertainment and there is just one clear winner and that is DJ Blake well done well done BAE it was actually inevitable because you were designed to do that but what I was impressed with was fatbike Blake with more applause because our super impressed with you dude because you kind of shifted that way around on that track you're clearing them gaps you manual before him so I'm super impressed well done but on a serious note takeaway from all that fun bit on a serious note it doesn't matter what bike you are actually riding out there on the trail no matter Punk track dirt jumps trails downhill as long as you're having fun on that beast because that's what that's what matters it's all about having fun out there if you love this video don't forget to smash that globe right up there to subscribe because
