About this episode
Welcome to Downtime Goes Downhill, a podcast mini-series that’s bringing you along for the ride, as we have a go at racing downhill. Downtime Goes Downhill wouldn’t be happening without the support of some incredible brands. So a massive thanks to Canyon bikes , Fox suspension , Wahoo Fitness , Fox clothing and protection , Maxxis tyres , Magura brakes and We Are One Composites wheels . Downtime Goes Downhill is back and this time we’ll be taking you behind the scenes of our team camp to give you some insight into what went on. I’m joined by my teammates, Jonny and Ben, as well as World Cup mechanic and suspension wizard, Rich Simpson, as we take you through our work on suspension setup, trying out some interesting new technology in our forks, new tyres and more. So sit back, hit play and listen to Downtime Goes Downhill with me, Ben and Jonny and Rich. You can also watch the episode on YouTube here and you can check out Rich’s suspension setup work here .
