The Trek Slash is a downhill bike designed to take a real beating. Somehow a local teenager managed to snap the rear triangle. Turns out this kid is pushing the boundaries pretty hard and winning races. Sometimes the fastest line…
A Specialised Kenevo with plenty of miles on the clock came in last week. The idea being just a few touchups as the owner wanted to sell. Every bike that comes to me gets a full clean and detail. This…
