Brendan Fairclough Reveals His Gnarliest Build Ever + Rampage 2025 Predictions

Brendan Fairclough is back in the studio to reveal his gnarliest build ever and give us an exclusive first look at his wildest project yet, a 9m treehouse to under ground tunnel build we've (temporarily) named MTB OBLIVION. We cover why Bren's sitting out Rampage this year, the mental game of competing in Utah, who he's tipping for the win (Godziek, TVS, Emil, Zink?), and the chaos of creating a viral freeride line on a shoestring budget in the Surrey Hills.  The Ride Companion Christmas Ride at BikePark Wales!
