Great video!!!

Love the "decapitation" hazards. It's amazing how tight the coarse gets and those guys never let off.

most pros xc or mx like that in the video have all kind of work done like internal engine mods where they have 50+hp, intake and exhaust, aftermarket suspension front and back, the pros have hardly anything on their bikes stock from what i've seen.

If your looking to race cross country (XC) put your money in suspension and comfort first. They will help you go faster for longer. The local pro's I have seen have way more done suspension wise then engine wise.

same here with our "pro" riders, in xc you don't need alot of power, you need good suspension and stamina to finish.
