Today in news we aren't quite sure is real, Lewis Buchanan has signed with OnlyFans. For those pretending to be unfamiliar, OnlyFans is a content subscription service used largely for "direct to consumer" adult content, but it also features other kinds of content creators. Creators earn money from fans who subscribe to their content. The site has over 3 million creators and over 220 million users.
 | I am proud and very stoked to announce my signing with OnlyFans for 2023 as title sponsor. I have always wanted to partner with a company outside the MTB industry but who are keen to get stuck into something new. OnlyFans is a social media platform where anyone can be creative and showcase their talents. Sharing exclusive content or whatever you are passionate about and connecting with your fans.
I will use my account to share my tips and tricks on bike setup, on track tips and behind the scenes footage at events across the world. It is cool to bring a brand this large into the MTB world and I’m excited on what this will do for me and everyone involved. I look forward to working alongside the people behind the company and having their support and backing to create the coolest MTB content and visit the most insane locations around the world on two wheels. This job I do is a business more than it ever used to be and I am proud of myself for making moves outside of the industry, stepping into something that’s never been done before in MTB and to see this come together after months of piecing it together. Let’s have a good one!—Lewis Buchanan via Instagram |
Lewis Buchanan's OnlyFans can be found here. Be aware that the platform hosts lots of adult content, but so far Lewis's OF appears entirely safe-for-work. This is a disclaimer I never thought I'd be typing.
All joking aside, OnlyFans has ramped up its marketing outside of the adult industry recently, sponsoring several moto riders and having an increased presence at Dakar this year. Congratulations to Lewis, and always excited to see big non-endemic players support the bike industry. 2023 is off to an interesting start!

"It's porn, I swear! Dirty, nasty, hardcore stuff."

"I think that's actual a reverse cowgirl"
"whatever...things got a bit hairy there..."
I think they’ve had some issues with payment companies not wanting to handle porn money and they’re desperately trying to change their image.
I had to turn them down though, as cool as it could be I pride myself on family friendly content and cut didn’t sit well with me too have that porn association.
I did wonder if people would take them up, fair play for being brave enough to do it! YouTube seems to be doing its best to f**k over creators so any competition or alternatives can only be a good thing.
Now when the pressure is higher they are looking for a way how to keep the cash flowing and telling us they never wanted it to be like this.
Nothing to do with sport support. Company is only looking for new sources.

That said, for creative professionals I thought Patreon was the platform for getting support.
"Hey, thought I’d clear up the fair question you asked here! I’m not into racing enduro anymore or heavily focusing on being competitive and haven’t been for a couple years now. I’ve been racing since I was 11 years old and I got tired of it. I’m enjoying competing now and then In different events but focusing on travelling to cool locations and filming & riding with new people and friends and sharing my experiences and working alongside my sponsors. Change has been good and I’ve found my feet doing this. Cheers
Lew "
Sigh.
Credit where credit is due :-D
Nothing is gained but alot is lost in the way
"get stuck into something new", the jokes write themselves
Go get paid Lewis!
Wonder what more traditional sponsors that also support Lewis think of this?
And Who gets the visor? Chic Fillet or fig Newton?
What I do know is that I'm never typing 'Porn Hub Mountain Biking' into google again.

Disclaimer: masterbation is totally natural and fine for any sexual orientation or gender but let’s be honest.. paying someone to rub a rolling pin on their uglies whilst you tug yourself off and listen to Drake… you could definitely do more productive things with your life DrakeFan.
Also, I sincerely hope you have a daughter one day and realise how offensive what you said is.
