The story

MTB Consultant is the culmination of a passion stemming from over 30 years of mountain biking on countless trails, being a pioneer in coaching mtb specific skills and working in both the MTB industry and trail networks.

I also hold a master's degree in sports psychology and a trail building certification.

It is with great pleasure that I continue exploring all the latest innovations as often as possible, allowing me to have an opinion based on my own experience. This is how I am able to discover exceptional (or disappointing!) products, and thus be able to better advise you according to your needs.

In short; I have a wealth of experience and expertise to share, especially if you are interested in unique products that stand out from the crowd.

My philosophy:

A bike that has been optimized to meet your specific needs causes no interference or distraction. It becomes an extension of your body.
There aren't any bad bikes on the market anymore, but it's easier to make a bad choice!

the VIP shopping experience

  • Since I don't keep any inventory (only demos), I'm not tempted to convince you to buy something that's lying around on the floor!  ;-)

  • My pricing policy is quite simple; it's the lowest price allowed by the manufacturer. 

  • I will handle warranty claims on your behalf, for ultra-fast settlement.

Trauma recovery COACHING

My degrees in psychology, and especially in sport psychology, allow me to offer a truly unique coaching experience: Helping people overcome their fears, break through mental blocks, and rediscover the joy of riding after a traumatic incident.

Mountain biking is an extraordinary sport, and no one should miss out on it because of a bad experience.

I literally broke my neck in a bike crash in 2018. Did I keep any trauma from that event? No. I'm riding stronger since, but also smarter.

How it works:

A session starts with a quick bike check to make sure everything is safe. Then we go for a ride on a trail where something scares you, and we gradually work together to overcome the obstacle.This allows you to understand your restrictions, adjust your technique (If needed), build confidence and deactivate the traumatic memory.

Cost: $100 (It usually takes between 2 and 3 hours)

NOTE: We need to have an initial conversation to confirm a session. I may decline, if I judge the request to be irrelevant to my offer or if I am feeling unable to help. (Adults only)

Please initiate contact HERE if you would like to book a session.

Life is a beautiful ride!
