Video: Rob Warner’s Retro Race

Retro bikes. Rob Warner. Modern bikes. Loud Troy Lee outfit. It’s all here. Peak lad science, possibly proving the point that brakes are probably the most important thing on your bike. Here you go…

What happens when you put Rob Warner against the clock on five generations of Giant downhill bikes? From the iconic 1996 ATX 990, which propelled Rob to become the first British rider to win a Downhill World Cup, to the cutting-edge Glory Advanced, a modern race machine designed for ultimate performance.

I came to Singletrack having decided there must be more to life than meetings. I like all bikes, but especially unusual ones. More than bikes, I like what bikes do. I think that they link people and places; that cycling creates a connection between us and our environment; bikes create communities; deliver freedom; bring joy; and improve fitness. They're environmentally friendly and create friendly environments. I try to write about all these things in the hope that others might discover the joy of bikes too.
