Tricks are no problem for the Austrian trial star – no matter what kind of bike he uses. So he is challenging himself to ride a city bike down a Moutainbike downhill track.These bikes aren’t built for tricks but that doesn’t stop Wibmer. For his safety he pimped up his ride with Magura HS brakes, Continental tyres and Cranbrothers pedals. However the trial in Saalbach/Leongang is a hard challange and it took some expert handling to navigate the heavy-duty bike down the trails.
„All in all, it was one of the best and funniest experiences I’ve ever had. Trying to push myself is the best thing ever“ –Fabio Wibmer
However, as you might expect, city bikes are not built for crazy downhill tracks, which you normally challenge with a mountain bike. But- as Wibmer is a real master – he manages to ride down this downhill track with this city bike – and it even looks great. But no more words are necessary – just watch his fascinating ride in the spectacular video of his challange below!
