Amy Morrison is definitely no stranger to the podium, winning the 2015 and 2016 California Enduro Series as well as the 2017 North American Enduro Tour and the 2017 California Golden Tour series. 28 years young, she grew up waterskiing with her two brothers in Michigan and pole vaulted for Clemson University before discovering mountain biking when she moved to California in 2013. She found herself loving the adrenaline of the downhills so she upgraded her hardtail to longer travel bikes, began racing enduros, and quickly came to dominate the domestic enduro circuit. She's skilled on all two wheels and also loves riding moto when she's not on the bike. Amy continues to progress and has her eyes on the podiums of the Enduro World Series; she is an incredibly talented racer and Fuji can't wait to support her upcoming season.

Jimmy Smith ripped onto the enduro scene in 2017 winning both the Southern Enduro Tour and the IMBA National Enduro Series. Born in Southern California, raised in Hawaii, and currently roaming the country based out of Colorado, Jimmy has been passionate about all things two wheels for his entire life. Jimmy rode BMX professionally before deciding to make the switch to enduro last year. He's currently turning his passion for mountain biking into a career and chasing his dream of competing in the Enduro World Series, and Fuji is thrilled to have this rising star on the Factory Team.
Since introducing the MLink™ suspension system, Fuji Bikes has been committed to developing mountain bikes that can handle anything and stand out in the industry as highly capable and affordable (and a hell of a good time, too). In 2018, Fuji will be releasing a totally redesigned line of full-suspension bikes developed through three years of rigorous testing on the Enduro World Series circuit. Keep your eyes out this season for their all-new models. To learn more, please visit www.fujibikes.com.
