Carbon Based Lifeforms…
2 months, 18 days ago.
While the worker bees, sales guys and marketing stooges keep trucking along arrow straight and tight like a muthafukin’ tiger down here at the cannery, the engineers are up in Whistler, entertaining journalists and dazzling passers-by with some carbon fiber v-10s. Hey, wait, didn’t they just go to Portugal to do that? Oh, lookit that, [...]

2010 Teva Games Slopestyle – More Mountain Bike Videos
Exhibit A, the above gem from Spomer’s alter-life, Vitalmtb.com. Of note, Santa Cruz free agent Logan Peat sneaking a 4th overall in the Teva Mountan Games slopestyle competition AHEAD of Santa Cruz Syndicate’s lovable wall of muscle, Jamie Goldman. Not too shabby on either of their behalfs, [...]

Ahhh, Fort Bill, You Scottish Heartbreaker.
3 months, 3 days ago.
After an epic weekend of World Cuppery in Fort William, Scotland, when the (uncommon) dust settled, and the midges stopped biting, the Syndicate boys walked away with a third place courtesy of Greg Minnaar’s performance (you can read team den mother Kathy Sessler’s report here). Peaty was busy launching a new team and learning how [...]

Wednesdays With Who?
3 months, 9 days ago.
Meanwhile, as Warranty Guy and I were enjoying gentlemanly conversation and colorful springtime trails aboard our Stigmatas over Memorial weekend, the usual, but of late invisible, hero of Wednesday – mister Mark Weir – was in Pennsyltucky, preparing to get beaten like a baldheaded, hairybacked stepchild. The venue for said beating being the very painful [...]

Strangulation
3 months, 15 days ago.
It has been a while folks, and aside from a gargantuan list of “shit that must get done” there is no excuse for the silence from this end of the wire. We shall try to be more proactive about not being silent in the upcoming days/weeks/months, especially since we just got guilt tripped by the [...]

E-spec Ma Auth-ah-rah-tee!
3 months, 29 days ago.
The above video, following one Doctor Steve Peat, of Sheffield, England, as he competed in the Lisboa Downtown urban downhill race last weekend, serves as a good cautionary tale in the land of internet marketeering. In the video, we see the good Doctor, evidently running a good four seconds up on the hot-seat rider, pile-drive [...]

The Madness Continues
4 months, 6 days ago.
The above image was just poached from Syndicate rider, reigning World Champion, Rhys Ifans impersonator, and pride of Sheffield, Steve Peat’s twitter feed. The Syndicate lads, our engineers, the guy who owns our company, a Welshman, a couple spare South Africans, and various other members of an entourage that would make any rock star proud, are [...]

springtime new bike fever
4 months, 14 days ago.
Besides the shiny poison oak, flightless Europeans trapped in Santa Cruz clamoring for bikes to borrow, three new bike launches in as many weeks and over-caffeinated co-workers, the last couple weeks has the annual springtime influx of “bro” requests from all over for a new bike. That’s when I know Spring has come around, [...]

The Happiest Little Trainwreck on Earth
4 months, 15 days ago.
We are not a big company, and we don’t do a good job of presenting a glossy facade to the world. Nobody here wears collared shirts, at least not if they don’t want to be made fun of, we don’t have inspirational posters hanging from the walls, there is not a museum in the lobby, [...]
