  • Racer X Films: We Ride Michael Leib's Bike

Ever wondered just how good a pro's race bike is? How much power does it make and what does it handle like? How light is it? We wondered too, so when Michael Leib offered to let us spin a few laps on his race bike we were all over it. We know factory machines are amazing but the plight of the privateer racer to build a competitive machine is something that is very intriguing. It isn't easy to build a bike on a budget that can keep up with the factory supported teams of the sport. Check it out as we take the Leib machine through it's paces and see where it stacks up against factory hardware.
