Check out the new Sette Derro 2.0. In my opinion, this is a great deal, the fork alone can retail as much as $700 and the rear shock up to $300. So for $500 more, you get the rest of the bike! Frame 7005 Aluminum Size(s) Small, Medium, Large & Extra Large Fork FOX 32…

Sometimes we here at MTNBikeRiders receive letters from Santa about this time of year. Usually it’s kids writing to Santa wanting to get a new bike for Christmas but let’s face it, Santa ain’t got a clue when it comes to bikes. Santa will usually forward the letters to us to read and make a…

After years of seeing me struggle to wrench on my bike with a pathetic bike stand that simply lifts the rear of the bike a few inches off the ground, my better half surprised me with a new Workstand for our anniversary. With advise from our family friend and rider extraordinaire Jer, she bought me…

Last time you may have heard me mention, the Sette Reken was a 1×3 then most recently a 1×8. That was cool and all, but II kept dropping my chain when it was set up as 1×8. So last night, I wanted to do something with the Sette Reken…again. I figured I’d try and convert…

Met up with Brian and Mylo of Sette at Sea Otter. They were displaying their two new 26″ carbon frames, the more XC oriented Impulse and the very racy Phantom. The Phantom comes as either frame only or fully built up. The fully built Phantom has an amazing spec sheet for the money, $2,699, a…

I wanted to share them with you: The Sette Impulse: a 26″ carbon mountain bike frame for $499.98 From pricepoint.com: Impulse? Impulsive! Whip-crack fast, turn on a dime… and sprint? Sprint ALL the time! Featuring a beautiful…

Our good friends from PricePoint.com let us take some pictures of a pre-production Downhill bicycle. 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…

Last month we featured the Sette Impact Protective Suit.  Along with the suit, we received the Sette Impact Padded Under Shorts.  “Under shorts” meaning you would wear these under your moto style, baggy cycling or just plain shorts.  These are specific for downhill with pad placement or areas such as your tailbone, hips and thighs. …

Black and White on my bike that is…I simply love the color combination. Recently we mentioned Pricepoint.com has some white lock on grips for about $10. Jeremy and I ordered a set for our bikes and I finally was able to install it on my Sette Reken Single Speed. Like my Cow Horn? I figured…
