DVO Suspension Sponsors the Fezzari Factory Enduro Racing Team

Press Release: DVO

After a successful Winter Gravity Series pre-season, we are excited to officially announce our support of the 2022 Fezzari Factory Enduro Racing Team. This crew of six riders from across the country will be putting it all out in the line at the Big Mountain Enduro Series, California Enduro Series, Nationals and North American EWS in their respective categories. The riders will be racing the all-new Fezzari La Sal, complete with the DVO Oynx SC D1 fork and Topaz 2 or Jade X shocks, depending on the terrain and rider preference. The Fezzari La Sal with the DVO suspension sets, along with parts from the other sponsors, is a race-bred machine. We join VelociRAX, TRP Cycling, Trail Manos, DT Swiss, Club Ride Apparel, Ride Concepts, Cush Core, Fasst Company, Maxxis, Mountain Racing Products, SCC Tech, Look Cycle, WHT LBL Custom Mountain Bike Apparel and Kogel Bearings in supporting the new team.

We recently spent a long weekend in Saint George, Utah where we worked to dial in the racer's suspension. These riders are ready to go racing!




The 2022 Fezzari Factory Enduro Racing Team includes:

Jake Ingram

Jake suffered an arm injury at Bootleg Canyon after a successful Winter Gravity Series but is back on the bike and will be between the tape soon with more hunger than ever.

Naish Ulmer
Naish is from Park City, UT, is 32 years old and racing the Pro Open category. Naish brings with him a lot of competitive experience, first as a professional skier then as a privateer racer. He’s committed to training and always exudes positive energy.

Ryder Cook
Ryder is from Henderson, NV, is 18 years old and racing the U21 Men category. Ryder is a tough, gritty and dedicated rider. His innate dedication and competitive fire make him a racer to be reckoned with on course.

McKaela Meffert
McKaela is from Coupeville, WA, is 15 years old and racing the U21 Women category. Kaela may be our youngest rider, but don’t be fooled, she is tough as nails.
