โ€‹ย In this video, GMBN take on one of the worldโ€™s most iconic World Cup Downhill mountain bike tracks, Les Gets! But with a twist. We have sent an XC rider to ride it on a Canyon Lux World Cup XC bike! Modern XC bikes are said to be more capable than ever, so we sent James Pickering to see just how far he can could push it on this steep and muddy race track.
