He takes us through every step of the build. Getting it ready for everything the desert has in store. It's cool to get some insight into what he's running for such a challenging event.
The bike is a custom Scott Gambler special edition with Fox suspension. Brendan rides a large frame and has had it customised by adding things like his daughter's name and other custom decals.
The Gambler is specced with DMR grips, pedals and cranks, Hayes brakes, Pirelli tyres, Enve wheels, SRAM shifter and rear mech, and a Deity cockpit finished with a Deity saddle and seatpost.
"I think I might actually go as far as to say - it's the coolest bike that I've ever had. It's a Deathgrip 2 bike, the only thing I've had going through my head for the last 18 months is Deathgrip 2, so we thought this would be the perfect angle. I'm absolutely thrilled with the result, can't wait to put it on dirt." - Brendan Fairclough
