As one of our favorite shredders, Chris Akrigg has skills for days no matter what bike he’s on. After a terrible injury falling off the side of a cliff and then breaking his leg again, Akrigg looks to be back 100% after a long recovery. His latest film is one of the best combining seamless transitions from bike to bike, and a bit of comedy thrown in for good measure. Great to see you back Chris.

This guy is good. Really good. But he’s also really fun to watch, like he’s really enjoying what he’s doing.

Way to go Chris!

he simply chose not to destroy your mind with his actual trials bike or fixie bike – in which he does trials

That is possibly the best cycling video I have ever seen! Never heard of the guy and haven’t seen a Mongoose here in Oz for ages, think I want one!

I’d rather watch Chris Akrigg over Danny Macaskill any day! Plus, he’s got some amazing video/producing skills!!
