SpaceGhost Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 21 May 2013 The record for the top speed reached on a mountain bike was broken on Sunday. Frenchman François Gissy reached a speed of 263km/h (163 mph). The mountain bike powered by hydrogen peroxide broke the previous record of 242.6km/h (150 mph) on a track near Mulhouse, eastern France.
