Jacqueline Harmony – “I am so thrilled to be a part of a team, where I will be able to travel with Dante and the team to some of the best races in the U.S. and Canada. I can't wait to try out the new bike and all the new gear for 2012.”

Dante Harmony – “This year is going to be amazing with Team Harmony joining forces with Mikey Haderer on some of the best equipment out there. I am also super pumped to be focusing more on the booming sport of enduro racing.”

Mikey Haderer – “I am really excited to be working with such core brands going into 2012. Morewood had such a great standard of quality and dedication to racing that it was the perfect step for me to move forward with my racing and filming endeavors. I couldn't be more stoked to have been asked to be a part of this program."

Mr. X – “…”

The legendary Morewood Makulu with the Cane Creek Double Barrel.

The upcoming Dave Weagle Split Pivot Morewood Sukuma will be used for Enduro.

The team is rocking iXS for protection, clothing, helmets, and gloves.

The Makulu bikes are being built with the finest components from VP Components, MRP, Deity, Grammo, Cane Creek, ENVE, and more. The 4x and Enduro bikes will add the White Bros. Loop fork up front.

Be sure to check out the Solar Sense powered team set-up at races all over North America. The team pit will provide neutral support for VP and MRP riders.

The iXS Morewood factory team will develop product for VP, Grammo, and others.

Jackie and the boys will be running several pedals from VP like the 308g VP-69 with a Ti spindle (Spindle not pictured). They will help to develop and refine products for several companies.

New sponsors, product developments, team builds, and event reports will be posted to iXSusa.com and usa.morewoodbikes.com

See you at the races!

Ok so why are the pros US based? youve got a proudly south african company and a swiss company, I dont know I guess Id just like to see more south african guys on the international circuit and Im pretty shure the swiss wouldnt mind seeing more of their own people out there either.

They call it narrow split. The difference is on the front mount which shares its axle with the shock mount.
On the back the axle bearing is different too,allowing for a narrow rear end, almost half's of trek.
