How To Make Trail Speed (And Keep It!)

October 10, 2024 by Jass

Download

Generating speed on your MTB is easy enough, all you have to do is pedal! But keeping that speed is a lot harder. Braking just a little bit too much before a corner or bouncing off of roots is the quickest way to kill your speed. But, Neil Donoghue is here to show you how to corner with confidence and use bumpy terrain to your advantage. You’ll learn to use techniques like pumping and unweighting to generate speed rather than lose it.
