DANNY AND HIS GLORY CONQUER THE WORLD
|
Mountain Bike Action on Giant Factory Off-Road DH pro Danny Hart: “Cool under pressure: Danny Hart threw the sickest whips when he raced the 2011 Sea Otter Classic downhill. Danny used the same relaxed style at the World Championship in Switzerland in pouring rain ‘because people expected it from me.’”
The February 2012 issue of Mountain Bike Action includes a nice profile of Danny Hart and his World Championship-winning Giant Glory, with the champ breaking down his choice of world-class components.
ON THE RIDE:
Danny says of his medium Glory, “The bike is a perfect size, and the Maestro suspension system works so well. It is light and nimble, allowing me to get wherever on the track I want whenever I want.”
ON HIS CHAMPIONSHIP PERFORMANCE:
“While most riders struggled to stay upright, Danny Hart charged down the mountain with amazing confidence, slipping, sliding and splashing, but never looking out of control.”
ON HIS DOMINATION:
“In an event where racers’ finishes are measured in thousandths of a second, Danny finished 11 seconds faster than second place. It was the most impressive World Championship win in downhill history.”
