Hey Lee! I was wondering if I could tap into your bike fitment expertise? I am looking at getting an Evil Insurgent, and I feel like I am right between a L and XL. Any tips or input would be greatly appreciated! I am 6’2″ tall with normal proportions. I like to ride DH and […]
I’ve ridden XTR Di2 electronic shifting, and it’s freaking awesome. As great as the cable-actuated Shimano shifters are, this is next level. Check out this video and info from Shimano:
I’ve heard it said that cycling requires core strength, but it doesn’t develop core strength. Based on the dead cores I see on many clients, as well as my own issues with a soft underbelly, that seems awfully true. What if you can ride in a way that both uses and strengthens your core?
Lee, I’ve had a chance to digest your RideLogic bike setup method and calculations (RideLogic Bike Setup System), and my bike is dialed. One last geo question for you. While not directly related to your calcs, I’m looking to upgrade my fork to a Pike and the nearest stock size to mate with my 2013 […]

This press release on Pinkbike about Ragley’s 2017 line contains an explanation of Ragley’s geometry. I like Pinkbike, and Ragley strikes me as a cool company that makes awesome bikes. That said, we’re hearing similar geometry claims more and more, and I don’t think they all make sense.
On my 47th birthday a couple days ago, The Wife and I explored the trails at Sunset East in Erie, CO. What fun! An easy climb with green, blue and black descents, all flowy and lovely. It’s the perfect layout for riders of different levels to enjoy mountain biking. Go slow, go fast, go little […]
When you’re Riding (with a capital R), you roll over most trail features without a care. You’re Flowing in the moment, and your body is executing trained patterns in a fluid and, I might add, awesome way. But sometimes you encounter a thing. That thing could be a drop, a jump — anything that makes […]
Hi Lee, two more questions about the stumpjumper fsr 6 fattie, What do you think of the Ohlin shocks? and do you think it would be a good enduro bike I am planning on tackling a few enduro races, I currently have the camber with a 130 mm rockshox pike on the front and love […]
Dear Lee, We recently bought your book “Welcome to pump track nation.” We live in the countryside, about 30km away from Bogotá, in Colombia. Our son, Rafael, is a 17-year-old enduro rider and he had a few months ago, the great idea of building a pump track. We would really like you to help and […]
You stopped using Strava three years ago because it brought out your crazy. But today, after four hours teaching and riding, you turn on Strava to time the climb.
I’ve been riding plus tires all season on a Specialized Fuse and Stumpjumper 6Fattie. Both bikes came with 27.5×3″ Purgatory front and Ground Control rear tires, all in the lightweight Control casing. Both bikes are super capable and fun to ride. Last weekend I rode the new Specialized Purgatory 27.5×3 GRID tires on both ends […]
