Last week, Braydon Bringhurst turned the mountain bike world upside down with his full-length film — “8600FT.” The subject of that film? Climbing up the whole length of The Whole Enchilada epic trail and clearing every section.

That includes the infamous Snotch, which doesn’t seem like it should be physically possible for anyone to climb up it. Oh, and that was just one big move out of many on his way up to the summit during the 8,000+ foot ascent. The bike he used for this incredible feat is being raffled off for charity.
During one of the more poignant moments of the film, Braydon reveals that his cousin took his own life, which is why this raffle will support Crisis Text Line.
“All raised funds will go to Crisis Text Line, a mental health nonprofit that provides free, 24/7, high-quality text-based mental health support and crisis intervention by empowering a community of trained volunteers to support people in their moments of need.“
The Bike
Braydon accomplished the incredible feat using a Canyon Spectral 29 outfitted with a complete SRAM/RockShox part kit.
The Canyon Spectral 29 available to the winner includes a custom decal kit paying homage to the 8,600-foot feat. A minimum donation of $10 is required to be eligible to win the bike, and the contest runs until February 2, 2023.
