Yeah, that guy's amazing! Note no brakes, direct drive forward & backward, and some of those drops!!

Evolvo, you're correct, I was not looking closely enough at the bike! Here's a link that shows some really good closeups of his bike details - disk brakes front & rear, and I cannot figure out that derailleur! Danny MacAskill | Bike Check - Pinkbike.com
There's mention of a Bloopers clip, but I did not take time to look for it...

Roger - I followed the link and found a short video of a couple crashes - the one on the dam piping - ouch!!

If you watch the original video I posted, there is one short shot - he has what looks like a huge bruise on an arm
