Let me start of by saying I am not a professional. I just wanted to put together a quick video showing what I purchased along with my new bike. Some of the added costs so a new biker could budget it in if need be. Hopefully this will help out. I also hope you fall in love with the sport as I have, I wish I started years ago. http://destinationripped.com https://www.facebook.com/whitee27 https://twitter.com/dstnationripped http://instagram.com/whitee27/ http://pinterest.com/whitee27/ email: coachwhitee@destinationripped.com

i would like to buy a Canondale. New to mountain biking can you advice me should buy catalyst or trail?

Also, you need something to protect your frame from getting hit by the chain! Important when you jump a lot. Otherwise the paint comes off and it'll look ugly.

your amazing, thank you

👍Good tips and information. Thanks!

Shouldn't use clipless on a mountain bike, its dangerous. Many of the top pro's use flats. Don't believe the hype, totally pointless.

from my experience you need 3 things: a bike, a friend, and his bike... so he could carry you when front wheel and handles become 2 separate pieces and you end up in a WALL OF CACTUS!!! it's been 11 years now and i still haven't forgiven those cactie! (cactuses?)

can u use a motocross bike helmet for mtb??

the disturbing part is that I bought a bike about a week ago...I didn't research it...I didn't post about it on social media...and yet YouTube suggested mountain biker for beginners. that's a little weird. but fuckit ...so what.

Just bought a cannondale today thanks for the video man.

how much was the bike without any upgrades?

My beginners equipment list is a bike. you can go biking with just a bike, sounds crazy, but it actually works. If you are doing trails rated Green circle you are set to go. (water recommended) there's nothing wrong with a simple water bottle, you can buy a bottle of water that fits into your bottle holder and save some money. Gloves yes, all the pads and extra gear not really needed if you ride greens, which is what you should ride as a Beginner. A helmet is a great idea! but not really mandatory if you take it easy and have some self preservation instincts , still a great idea. don't bother with clipless shoes if you are a beginner, go and ride. when you are ready for a blue you are intermediate and should then think about upping your safety gear.

thanks man great video

Lights? High-Viz (breathable/waterproof) jacket? Gold standard lock? Alan keys? Adjustable? Tape? Telephone? Some cash? Puncture repair kit? Pump? Spare inner tube? Or have done with that and go for tubeless ready rims/wheels before you make a bike purchase.

Thanks for the tips 👍🏻

good little vid, just started myself myself, found it pretty usefull to watch this, thumbs up!

Don't go clipless... :/ clipless is for road bikes... not mountain bikes. Flat is faster, and safer for beginners.

Personally I would buy some better flat pedals and some skate shoes, as this can be cheaper and far better for confidence.

those pedals are mainly for road bikes, definitely not for beginners.... if you're beginning to ride and want to ride clipped the Crank Brothers Mallot are the best........

As a xc rider its not that much, but as a enduro or dh rider you can easyly spend like 300 to 500€ at least on protection gear, shoes and clothing.

Is that a survival bracelet u have on? :) me liky
