All hail to new champ Danny Hart |
One epic tail whip! |
Before the start of the world championship season Danny or Dirty Dan as he is popularly known has been showing his potential already giving the elite downhill racers a run for their money, although not as popular with the likes of Sam Hill, Steve Peat and Aaron Gwin he is on a class of his own in the 2011 season. Here's a look of his stats up to his world championship win.
For those who are stating a fan page for Danny Hart her is a brief bio of the champion. He was born in Redcar England on September 20 1991. He rides for Giant Factory Off- Team.
The bike that Danny used on Champery was a Giant Glory frame large size set which a prototype frame, while most riders tend to change their set up time and time again Danny is much concerned on how well the ride will go, he just basically wants to have his bike set up then just leave it. He's been using the same bike with same set up all year. The bike was also fitted with Schwalbe's Dirty Dan mud tires one of the most important aspects on his final run because of the slippery conditions at Champery it is proper to select the most road worthy tire for the job it has a triple compound mix which work very well in these muddy terrain. Another mud-beating feature is the braking system which has neat carbon fibers covers.
No doubt with that epic run at Champery it only shows the mountain biking world what a technically gifted athlete Danny is. He truly deserves the rainbow stripes and seeing him defending them this March in South Africa is another experience worth having.
