Back in 2019 the INTENSE Factory Racing (IFR) team started prototyping and testing new bikes. First was the M279, a mixed wheeled version of our classic M29 downhill bike. This started a four year research and development process that would eventually see our design and engineering teams completely reinvent our downhill bike offering. Gone was the classic VPP/JS Tuned design, and in would come something completely different.
Dear all, I would like to ask if is possibile to activate an activity related specifically to DOWNHILL BIKE. At the moment doesn't exist even if a lot of some minor bike cycling activities are present (Gravel Biking, Bike Commuting, Bike Touring...)
I believe that could be very similar to sk/snowboard etc.
At the moment I'm using the normal MTB activity and I put on pause the activity during the uphill on the lift, but onestly I don't understand the reason of this dh missing activity.
I tried also to use a custom activity based on the snowboard. After finishing the "workout" :-) I assign cycling activity in connect, since it (snowboard) is not categorized as cycling automatically.
But is not the best option. The best option is to have a DH prorietary activity :-)
Could you help an old customer? :-)
Thank you
Bump. Any update of this issue from Garmin? Come up Garmin! It seems like a simple request! Please make a Downhill MTB activity that works similar to the Ski Activity. Yes, you can copy the Ski Activity and change the name, but you cannot change the Icon. Please fix this, there are plenty of Downhill riders out there!
Return of the legend. Introducing the Canfield Jedi 29. One of the most revered downhill bikes is back and faster than ever before. But big wheels are just the beginning. With a redesigned frame, linkage layout and suspension kinematics, the all-new Jedi does what many thought impossible and improves one of the most iconic gravity machines in nearly every aspect.
Like its predecessors, the all-new Canfield Jedi 29 is a two-wheeled podium-seeking missile designed to annihilate anything standing between it and the finish line. The rearward axle-path of the Canfield Formula 1 suspension design gives the Jedi the unnatural ability to not only maintain its speed, but actually accelerate through rough terrain. Thanks to 29-inch wheels, the new Jedi is even faster and smoother through nasty sections of trail, but a revised axle path allows it to corner and jump more intuitively than previous versions.
A revised leverage rate provides more supple small-bump sensitivity at the top of the stroke, while a more progressive end-stroke offers a smooth, bottomless transition on big hits. Improved mid-stroke support results in a more poppy, responsive ride. Neutral chain growth (less than 1mm) creates a smooth, disconnected feeling at the pedals, completely isolated from suspension forces. Braking performance has also been revised for slightly less anti-rise, remaining more neutral and predictable when you drop the anchor. Anti-squat is now more focused and consistent throughout travel, providing unparalleled acceleration at the pedals for a bike this gravity focused.
When it all comes down to seconds on the clock, don't leave it up to chance. With this latest revision of the TUES, we remove doubt from the equation as we chase our vision of creating the world's fastest downhill race bike. The previous TUES was no slouch. Its results, accolades, and rider feedback testified to that. For this latest iteration, we build on that winning formula and distill it into something new, complete with every tool a racer needs to stay atop their game.

I have started commuting recently to work and university with my bike. It's not ideal, but as it is, I'm not willing to invest in a new one, hence why I'm looking for suggestions to improve my current one.
There is not much you can do to a downhill bike for better commuting beyond swapping out tires for narrower on-road ones. Weight and bouncy suspension are an intrinsic part of the bike. To go faster you will have to get fitter and stronger.
Weight doesn't really change speed significantly (but it does make the pickup sluggish, creating the illusion that it is slow), nor does wheel size, or number of gears. (when I changed from 20"3spd to 700C,24spd my commute was exactly the same - depressingly)
But I totally second the suggestion of get a cheap second hand uni bike. When I was at Uni the odds of keeping a bike like yours for 1 year were the lesser of zero and nil. Save yourself time and worry, and just give it to a homeless guy now. He needs it more than the bike stealing scum at Uni.
You don't need a 'designer' bike. Pick up a cheap or second-hand road model. It also might not attract thieves so much, though I'm afraid here in London they'll steal anything that isn't chained down, and plenty that is.
If you want to experiment to see how much energy is lost by the your profiled tires, try a pair of slick tires; there are some that look almost like the profile-less ones for road bikes, just wider so they fit your MTB rims. Obviously, they are a bit more sensitive to nails, glass etc., so do drive carefully with them, keep a flat repair set with you, just in case, and of course don't throw away your old tires. If you do think that these help you a lot, either stick with them, or (if flats are a problem), find some semi-slicks.
Aside from that, having been in your shoes, I didn't find too much to do. You'll get more fit over time. Try to ... well ... pedal faster, try to find your sweet spot regarding cadence. Try to pedal intelligently with respect to forced stops (red lights) - try to approach them slowly so you are already in motion when they turn green, shaving off a few seconds of acceleration each time.
Swapping the rims so you can use narrower tires might be even better, but on my (no suspension) MTB that I use for commuting, I kept the original rims and just use mountain-bike tires that are intended for riding on hard granite trails. The middle part of the tread is basically pebbled, not studded, so they roll nicely on flat roads.
Mountain bike grips are an important interface between you and your bike; good quality grips help keep your hands in place and reduce vibrations from the terrain. When riding downhill, good quality grips can make the difference between arriving safely at the bottom or risking serious injuries; therefore, acquiring new and adequate grips for your downhill venture should be on the list of priorities. AMS offers one of the best downhill bike grips in the market providing a high grip that has been tested by pro riders in the most difficult terrains. The features on the AMS grips will guarantee a solid grip on the handle and a comfortable ride.
Well, the answer looked obvious: Do it. Learning through primary experience was clearly the way. But with a steep learning curve and a substantive equipment threshold, the big question was equally obvious: How?
Doing exactly that worked wonders. I visited Spider Mountain, a lift-accessed downhill park not far from Austin. I made plans with my crew, paid for my lift ticket (under $30), and arranged to rent a bike, helmet, and pads through the park.
