Remy Morton is chainless in Queenstown for “Sound of Speed”

Forget the freehub, this is nothing but the sound of tires on dirt!

Sound of Speed is back and, in Remy Morton’s hands, even more refined. The New Zealand rider ditches his chain to hit Queenstown with only the sound of tires on dirt for a soundtrack.

No freehub buzz. Definitely no music. Just Morton absolutely tearing up the trails. Chainless in Queenstown lacks a freehub but is far from quiet.

Full speed, no chain, and a very Kiwi sense of style. Morton puts his own spin on Sound of Speed and makes the consistently amazing Red Bull video format his own.
