Whats the whole point in a pump track??
Never really heard much about them. I also heard that you are ment to do a pump track with your chain off. Is this true??

Thanks alot

you ain't meant to pedal on a pump track thats why its called a pump track your meant to pump your way around the track. it doesn't mater if you have a chain on or not but if you take it off it gets rid of the temptation to pedal.      i hope that helps Wink

yeah you can ride it chainless or with a chain,
or just pedal around it, its fun to ride,
helps improve with any type of riding from dirt jumping to downhill,
and is good fitness training for DH.
