BikeRadar video of the day: Julien Absalon

This week we’ve got a selection of videos from the Interbike trade show in Las Vegas, where over 1000 international companies were displaying their wares in the 30,000 square metres of exhibition space.

We’re going to bring you highlights of the interviews we filmed throughout the show which include mountain bike legend Hans Rey, recent mountain bike Hall of Fame inductee Brian Lopes, L’Etape Du Tour finisher Lindsay Crawford, team Jelly Belly rider Bernard Van Ulden, plus the latest kit news from Valentino Campagnolo and Monica Santini.

Here’s the interview with Julien Absalon, two-time Olympic mountain bike champion and multiple world champion. He’s joined by Joseba Arizaga, Orbea’s marketing manager and mountain bike director.
