@gcn Dive into the ever-evolving world of mountain biking with Si Richardson from GCN as he takes on the challenge of embracing the latest trends. While Si is a fan of cutting-edge road bike tech, he finds himself stuck in the mountain biking dark ages. In this video, Blake Samson introduces Si to the game-changing Canyon Lux Trail, a 120/115 mm full-suspension, modern geometry cross-country bike. Will this bike be the key to pulling Si into the present? Join us for a fun journey into mountain biking’s evolution and the quest to bridge the gap between old-school and modern trail tech!
