Hey Bart Miller with Cycling Strong
christmas came early for me December 14th at my first
Fat bike race I can hardly wait so I came to the guys that
always take care me in Rexburg Idaho sticks and stones
they rock every time I'm in a pitch these guys come through
they know bikes like nobody else first things first
Sirly we're gonna put their
rims on this thing we're putting the marge lights on it
Tate told me I needed these amazing tires I don't even know what tires I'm
putting on this bike
but if Tate says they are the ones we need we're gonna put them on there
and they are the larry's 26 by 38
so good old scary Larry is going on for the first race
I hope they're the right tires we've got some hope
a breaks and of course we're doing the
X x1 package on this bike now I want to talk about a company that I did some
work with on my last fat bike
I really didn't work with them I just bought all their crap and that was Race Face
I put that on my first 907 bike and I absolutely loved it, it was amazing
worked really well and so I got some of their stuff
and I'm gonna open that package up right now right here on the top
a Canadian company on an american frame
good combination don't you think? I think so so anyways
yank that off, stick that right here
and let's look at some awesome stuff
we're gonna have
Oh man Race Face always rocks
look at that a t-shirt these guys know
what they are up to so let's
let's just take care of them right now
that's what I say right here in this video if you're good enough to
send us some shwag the Branding for you
Alright so we got that on first things first
right overall cycling strong and this little bad boy right here
that goes on the front of the bike
to be able to make this into XX1
look how cool that graphic is on that I don't know if you can see that
That is pretty sweet I also wore the old xx1 hat
just thought everybody should see that and uh
look at that, that is so freakin cool
nice packaging now to figure out how to get into it
live on videos you is your gonna be the next challenge here is
pretty sweet might have to have somebody smarter than me come over and do this
look at that
that is sick
wooo!!! okay
so don't keep eyeing on that alright take a look at this
This gotta be probably a seat post Man these boxes they really think 'em through
wooo!! WOW !
that thing is awesome
I'm telling you, it's Christmas
right here Rexburg there's the bar
pedals
stems
and.. man, all sorts of cool spacers to goes with the
stems so Race Face thank you so much
we can't thank you enough we want you on this bike
we were so stoked to be able to
short notice work with you guys
on this build. now for
the whole thing that goes on the rest this bike
i've been waiting for UPS all day long to send something out
notice on this thing
look at that
Coby take that shirt off that jacket off
you gotta sport one of these things try this on see how this looks
well Tate your gonna make the video buddy, Try that on
let's see what that looks like here you go Cobe
you guys can model these shirts were gonna have models coming up real soon
Alright we got us a cool sticker that'll be going on the SUV
and alright Tate come on over in that shirt
let's grab the where's that razer go? right there and let's open this thing
up
Cobe you can come and get the
fork outta here everybody is Tate
this is my son Coby
let Tate do all the dangerous stuff so he can cut his hand
what do you think? gotta cut it right there?
needed over there
here we go
one thing about it they do you tape it up nice
sweet
Alright let's look at this bad boy
right there what do you think of that Tate?
beautiful
and there we go Coby is modeling look at that
nice alright man
you got that you got that you got the razor
this is what Tate's been waiting for right here so he can build these wheels
up
so on the Borealis is one thing is really cool is this the hub they make it themselves
because
spacing on this is 190 which gives you the capability
and Tate was just talking more about this to be able to put any tire you want and
have plenty of room in here
and when you're in the snow clearance is a big deal obviously to be able to get the
snow through this so you don't get plugged up
on these bikes so that's what this is right here
and that's what they've done on this bike is really cool I don't know if there's anything you wanna add
on that day Tate but
sick yeah we're really excited to
build this thing up and have a little fun with it
so that's kinda the first little part of
getting all the stuff out and borealis
thanks for sending in t-shirts and thanks for sending the Race Face
stuff and we will keep you engaged we're gonna do this full build or probably maybe
a couple videos or 3 videos but Tate's going to all the wheels
I don't know if he's gonna do the total build or if Joe's gonna do some of it or how it's going to work but
yeah okay but sticks and stones thank you so much for
putting up with this race is close they're gonna make sure we're out there we're ready to role
and have a lot of fun this Saturday, Grand Targhee
