Strengths: amazing film making, not just for a bike video but for anything, this is a briliant work of art... seems short but you never get tired of itWeaknesses: makes you think crazy thingsBottom Line: even though i do mostly downhilling, i love trials- i would suggest that you wear a diaper or pants you dont care about while watching this since it will impress the sh!t out of you... twice...

from McKinney TXDate Reviewed: January 8, 2000
Strengths:
Riders, makers, and anyone else who took part. All the moves - including Jeff doing 45 or was that 45.5? and Ryan Leech doing that Dirt Rag thing..ya know..ride on it. Did I mention the sound track?Weaknesses:
Did not do Libor Karas justice.Bottom Line: This video is great! A job well done - I really really want to see Evolve and Kranked Three, includes footage of Ryan Leech at UCLA I think. I saw this vid in June just as I finished building up my Stock bike - it inspired me to learn as much as I can before my old body says hey !$@##!@$! ^^% so in July I went shopping and bought a used mod bike. Now I'm going for a new 2000 Megamo Pro mod and plan to hop all over myself if nowhere else. Revolution is an expose' of really sick trials riding by really good (hearted) people. Go win it all J J, the rest of us should just Go Ride. Five chili peppers even though I wrote some crap elsewhere about not giving 5s.

from Portland, ORDate Reviewed: December 14, 1999
Strengths:
great footage of some of the nation's best riders in and out of competition settingsWeaknesses:
it's been surpassed by Reed's (the director) new film EvolveBottom Line: The first professional video to represent the sport of trials in the United States. Lots of competition and true trials footage with a healty dose of urban trials. The riding is incredible and is sure to astound even the best riders (except the european trials riders of course). And if you think this is good (which it is) check out Reed Merschat's (that's the guy who made it...) new film EVOLVE. You can get either by going to www.crfilms.com. good stuff...
