Win a GO3 Camera by Insta360 this issue in our FREE subscriber prize draw.
Heading back out to the world’s biggest mountain bike jumps, after missing last year’s huge event. This year, Brendan Fairclough has come prepared with the sickest new custom Downhill Scott Gambler bike, custom painted by Fat Creations. Huge thanks, as always, to them for doing it. Heading out to meet Sam Reynolds, Matt Jones, and a huge crew out there, Brendan thought the custom bike would be perfect for the South African sun.
Brendan also thought that while building this bike, he would answer a couple of the most common questions he gets asked on how to ‘Get sponsored’ these days. He went into as much detail as possible and hopes it gives the audience at home a good idea of how to progress their mountain biking career.
