I ran into one of my favorite Canadian mechanics, Mathieu at the Race Face booth where he is pitted this weekend with his new team, the Kenda Morewood squad of Nathan Rennie and Mitch Delfs. The team is rolling on Morewood Makulu frames, Kenda tires, BOS suspension and Race Face components.

Following the announcement of Nathan Rennie and Mitch Delfs on-board the KENDA MOREWOOD Team, Gravity Group wish to announce a new partnership with BOS MOUNTAIN BIKE SUSPENSION as official Team Partner for suspension forks and shocks. Nathan Rennie and Mitch Delfs will have the choice between IDYLLE and IDYLLE PRO forks, while the STOY shock will be responsible for rear suspension on their downhill bikes.

Gravity Group, marketing agency is pleased to announce their cooperation with global tire producer – KENDA and bicycle manufacturer – TOMAC as title sponsors of the newly created KENDA TOMAC Mountain Bike Racing Team.

KENDA TOMAC is an international mountain bike downhill-fourcross team that associates 2 athletes: Filip Polc (Slovakia) and Mitch Delfs (Australia).

Tires, knobbies, rubber or treads. Whatever you want to call them, they are what give us that special connection to the dirt that we all depend on. Back in the day there were only a few different tires to choose from so it was easy, pick one and pump it up hard so you don’t pinch and you’re ready to rip. Jump forwards six or seven years and things have changed a bit. There are countless tread patterns, many different widths, a few sidewall options and on top of all that you need to pick a compound that suit’s the terrain, weather and how often you ride.

After a great 6-year relationship, Lopes has decided to part ways with MAXXIS tires in order to challenge his product development skills. Lopes has partnered with KENDA tires, this 3-year partnership will bring to consumers 2 signature Lopes tires annually and reunites Lopes with Jim Wannamaker, who he worked with during his BMX days with Mongoose.
