The history of Downhill mountain biking is steeped in tech and innovative solutions, with today's UCI World Cup DH bikes taking enormous inspiration from the bikes of old. Legendary downhill MTB journalist Steve Jones, (aka "that guy from EMBN") takes us on a journey of discovery, uncovering some of history's most famous downhill bikes, the geometry that shaped the bikes of today and the team racers that barreled down the steep, unforgiving slopes on these truly innovative bikes. - This video picks up from 2004/2005 so watch part one for the full story

As well as being an influential figure for the exposure of the downhill discipline, Jonesy went on to study the eMTB scene and the bikes for many years and began to introduce more and more eMTB content, foreseeing the opportunity and growth in the market that lay ahead.
