Mountain Bike Drops for Beginners was inspired by a request from a channel subscriber, Robin. Robin asked me to make a video with Lee from Lee Likes Bikes. At first I didn't see the need. There are a lot of videos on how to ride drops on a mountain bike already out there. But as I looked through them, it was obvious that many were suggesting techniques too advanced for beginner/intermediate riders (manuals) and even my favorite videos from Kyle Warner and Rich Drew might not be perfect for a rider like Robin looking to simplify and build confidence. I asked Lee if he was up for making a video on how to do drops for beginner mountain bikers and he saw the same potential to focus on beginners and intermediate riders who wanted to build up their confidence. I rode a hard tail mountain bike and Lee used his full suspension just to show the technique works equally well.
