Dangit man! Every single one is a dream bike! Shucks, I'd be proud to own just a seat off of any one of them! Drool factor rather high on this video!

I'm ballr. Not because I think I'm cool, but because in a former life I used to play a lot of football and my bike riding technique generally reflects that. Although I'd rather go by a different name these days, that's the confidential name I chose 14 years ago when some punk local kids were talking shit about me on the Ridemonkey forums and I felt the need to respond. Got my first mountain bike in '93 (Haro Extreme w/ RockShox Quadra) and promptly began a long career of crashing my brains out. As a result of paying off a...

I'm Todd. I work at Vital selling ads, not the super fun stuff that Spomer and iceman2058 do, although I'm getting pretty good at mixing business and pleasure. I've been around bikes for a long time...and hope to be around them for much longer. I grew up riding/racing BMX in Ohio, have been riding mountain bikes since the '90's, my first real MTB ride was San Juan Trail where I crashed multiple times going up with clipless pedals (first time), now - years later - I love San Juan. I'm a Schwinn certified mechanic, that was around 1990, we tore...

Hi, I'm Noah. Brand Manager of MRP. I ride bikes most days. I rode mountain bikes a lot as a kid in Colorado, but moved to Texas for my teen years. It was there that I pioneered the Birkenstock and socks look now popular with old Germans.

I got back into biking while I was at CSU (with 970biking, we used see each other huckin' staircases on campus) - that was a long time ago.

I may or may not have been hit by a car after a Road 34 pumptrack race and ended up in the ICU...

Johan Hjord is the name, iceman2058 here on the site, I'm one of the crew that slave away tirelessly to bring you, our readers, rad content from the 4 corners of the globe. Originally from Sweden, I've lived in California, France, Ireland and now more recently Israel. For simplicity, I usually say I'm from the Internet. -I owe my forum handle not to trying to be cool but to a very ill-advised choice of haircut and sunglasses back in the day that may or may not have had something to do with a certain movie about fighter jets. It's been...

*Stands up awkwardly* Hi, my name is Fred and I'm a bike-oholic. -Fred Robinson, actually, with the unfortunate nickname "DERF." I'm the newest member of the Vital team, having started contributing to the site around two years ago as a product tester. -Before I was a full-timer at Vital, I was a wrench at various bike shops in San Diego. -I started at a Performance, which may not be the coolest shop in the world but it was my gateway in as a "professional" mechanic and our particular store was filled with a bunch of rad dudes. -I used to...

"-I also love loud and bright riding gear more than almost every other thing in the world except Taco Bell. I sometimes (OK most of the time) forget why people look at me like I'm some kind of weirdo when I stop for food after the ride. But damned if that's gonna get between me and my burrito!" -Iceman2058 Ha! I have to also agree with this and say the same thing. My main reasoning is so that when I crash here in the PNW someone can find me off the trail. Also, surprisingly, helps get clear pics on those...
