Sam Pilgrim immerses himself in Japanese culture, as he makes a pilgrimage to share his perspective on freeride mountain biking with the local grassroots Japanese scene.

We might be seeing another clip like this from our own fair shores in the new year… Fingers crossed anyway… But it will have better photos!

Sam happens to be from my home town in the UK, he is a mad one but really a nice bloke. Although he travels all over the world it is great to see something from a bit of an untapped bike country.

VIDEO | How Santa Cruz Designs Full Suspension Bikes

Janet Kan November 21, 2022

Kiran MacKinnon is a human dyno. When Santa Cruz Bicycles needs to test, experiment and validate suspension then Kiran is the one of the main people we call on to do that work. Not only is he an extremely talented bike rider and incredibly knowledgeable about suspension, but he can actually interpret and translate what he’s feeling in a way that he can communicate to the rest of the engineering team. This enables them to cross-reference the data they’ve collected with real life, on-trail experience to build better bikes and provide the right setup for our riders. We’re constantly refining our VPP™ suspension as well as the damping tunes shocks we spec on our bikes in order to make sure our bikes ride really, really good.
