About Me

Mountain biking since 1996 when I bought one to commute to work in London and started seeking out the interesting ways home.

First 'proper' bike (GT Zaskar with XT and Judy XCs) bought with student loan in 1997

Started reading Dirt magazine, riding street and jumps - bought one of the first Orange MsIsles from the bike shop I was 'working' at in 1998

Job: Digital Product Design Lead (web, apps, desktop etc)

Reviewed by Matt Thompson and Jess Pedersen // Written by Brandon Turman // Photos by Shawn Spomer and Brandon Turman First introduced at Interbike 2012, the full-carbon Niner RIP 9 RDO is the next evolution of their popular and widely-loved aluminum RIP 9. Switching frame materials allowed Niner to tweak a few things and they took full advantage of the opportunity. Travel has been upped 5mm, chainstays shortened 5mm, tire clearance improved, cable routing revised and internalized, ISCG tabs added, stiffness boosted, and weight reduced… In short, they made it more capable of hauling ass and charging through the rough...

bturman Liked a product review 2013 Test Sessions: Rocky Mountain Altitude 790 MSL

2/12/2013 7:40am

Reviewed by Steve Wentz, Joe Schneider, and Brandon Turman // Photos by Shawn Spomer and Brandon Turman The all-new, all-carbon, 650B wheel equipped 2013 Rocky Mountain Altitude came to life just a few months ago, making it a perfect candidate for Vital MTB's Test Sessions in Southern Utah. This 150mm travel rig is Rocky's flagship trail bike, designed with the goal of getting the job done well regardless of the terrain. From the first minute of the Altitude’s design process, Rocky says there was never any doubt that they would build it around 650B wheels, citing limitations of both 26-inch...

I blame Nigel Page Firstly, for those who are having a go at Martin Whiteley, I'd suggest doing a bit of research and understanding quite what he's done for the sport in terms of helping to bring the professionalism to team structure, first through Global Racing and then to Honda G-Cross.
