DEMOS

Bikes and componants are very expensive nowadays and having the opportunity for a test ride is the ideal scenario. Offering demo experiences is an important element in my approach and I am taking the time to properly install the component on your bike. Here is a list of what is curently available:

• NOBL Ethos: A unique chance to get a feel for the latest designs from NOBL. You can go for a ride on my own custom version of a mullet, Trail/Enduro wheelset (Boost) with XD driver, GoodYear Enduro tires and 203mm rotors. I would install your cassette and may have to play with brake adaptors to make everything fit flawlessly.

• Vorsprung Smashpot: I am totally in love with this clever coil conversion kit that automatically brings any fork to a whole new level of comfort and performance! You can demo a RS Lyrik 29 set at 160mm, Boost, 7 inch long steer tube (M or L frames) with appropriate coil for your weight OR a FOX 36 set at 150mm, Boost, 6.5 inch long steer tube (Small or M frames). That fork also features the MRP V2 Lift damper and would be suitable for a rider between 150 and 175 pounds.

• Banshee Rune V3.2: This mullet bike is fully loaded with amazing exotic componants like the NOBL Ethos wheels, EXT Storia V3 shock, Lyrik fork with the Vorsprung Smashpot, 5DEV cranks and titanium stem, Formula Cura X brakes, RevGrips and OneUp carbon V2 bar. The bike is size large (I am 5.10) and suitable for someone weighing from 155 to 170 pounds.

• MRP Ramp Control V2: You need tokens in your fork, but can't find the sweet spot? This upgrade allows you to create and adjust «on the the fly», the same effect as adding/subtracting tokens. This is the version for 2019 and newer Fox 36 forks.

This is a very humble «demo fleet» at the moment, but it will increase with time... (Hayes Dominion A4, OneUp clipless pedals and V2 carbon bar are coming soon)

NOTE: There is a $20 fee for a demo experience, just so I am not wasting time with people who are not seriously shopping. If you end up placing an order, that $20 will be credited on top of an already discounted price!

Please contact me to discuss the details of your potential demo experience.

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: $60 (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 (Should be) a beautiful ride!
