As you can see, this bike was raced last weekend at Fontana, its talented rider took 2nd place on his first ever downhill race. Now, that’s pretty impressive! We will be posting final specs and pricing soon, but let’s just…

2 weeks ago Priscilla threw me a surprise party and some of my closest friends were there to help me celebrate my birthday. One of the many presents I got was this…its a “Joe Solancho Original.” I’ve mentioned this quite often, but Joe is a PRO-Photographer. So when he showed up with this…aw schucks, I…
Under the threat of rain, most of TeamMtnBikeRiders.com gathered under a couple of ez-ups and got ready to race. Saturday was my turn to be Señor Team Manager since RL was out on a retreat, that meant I had to be the photographer and race support. As usual, the XC racers gave it 110% percent…
Not many people know this but along with selling bike frames, which we have extensively tested (Reken) or are testing (Razzo), Sette also sells fully built up bikes.

Among the voluntary recalls are Clif Bars and Luna bars containing peanut butter. Below is a PARTIAL list of the products that have been…
OK, no it doesn’t, but mine is. My Sette Razzo build is more of a parts bin build than Joe’s White Zion, but I’m not jealous since mine is a 29er! 😉 The Sette Razzo came to us just under two weeks ago from pricepoint and after finding some parts and picking up a tensioner…
That’s my new motto for 2009 as I ride my Rigid Single Speed. Finishing touches on my rigid singlespeed were done over the holidays. Last component needed on this project were the disc brakes. I found a killer deal on Avid Juicy 5s right before Christmas. Top it off it was free shipping and arrived…
MtnBikeRiders has been frequenting Whiting Ranch as of late. Today was just another ride as I showed Val the trails of Whiting Ranch.  What made this ride interesting was when we reached Four Corners there was a Ranger truck parked up top without a ranger. After a brief rest, we headed down Cactus. I…
