I honestly never thought I would enjoy a video that featured nothing but climbing. Don’t we climb just so we can get to the fun part?! Camille Servant gets on an Altitude Powerplay from Rocky Mountain Bikes and makes climbing almost look as fun as descending for a sick edit that is unlike anything else out there right now.

For our thoughts on e-bikes…click here.

It’s no secret that riding an eMTB makes climbing easier. In fact, that’s kind of the point for a lot of riders. But for Camille Servant, he sees the added assistance from the motor as a chance to approach riding differently. From climbing up features he never dreamt possible to picking routes that mine as well be the Penrose Stairs, Camille’s having as much fun on the climbs as he is on the descents. There’s something to be said for the love/hate relationship many of us have for the traditional and monotonous grind, but we’re excited to see Camille innovating.

I founded Bike198 back in 2008 and started riding bikes seriously in 1994. A lot has changed since that time and one of the greatest releases is still getting out on the bike and shredding trail or tearing up the road.

I’ve always enjoyed climbing and, at my advanced age, still search out different ways to make my rides more of a training session than always the easiest route available.
