Those of us who ride bikes regularly tend to be a bit snobby about the brands we ride. After all, we want a bike that can stand up to our demands. In this video, pro mountain biker Phil Kmetz goes to Walmart to buy a Huffy Carnage and then takes it down a “real” mountain biking trail to see just how well it performs. Would the $179 bike be able to compete with the rides that he is accustomed to? You’ll have to watch the video to find out. I will tell you though, just watching his descent was enough to make me fear for his life.
