PRESS RELEASE: Transition/Muc-Off Factory Racing

Professional riders Tahnee Seagrave, Kaos Seagrave and Junior Jamie Edmondson will now be riding under the banner of Transition Bikes/Muc-Off Factory Racing.

bigquotesWe are stoked that Muc-Off are working with us for the next 2 seasons. After jumping on board for the 2017 season, they wanted more… Transition Bikes/Muc-Off Factory Racing was born. Muc-Off have joined some of the best companies in the world that equip us with THE best products on the market. With our fun yet professional environment we look forward to continued development and helping our riders fulfil their dreams.Tony Seagrave, Team Manager

bigquotesSince we first supported FMD Racing in 2017, they have been a formidable force on the Downhill circuit. The passion and drive shared by team manager Tony and the rest of the team is nothing short of contagious and a perfect fit for the Muc-Off ethos. This is Muc-Off’s first step into title territory and we couldn’t think of a team more suited to fly the Muc-Off flag. We’re insanely excited for the 2018 season and will be working closely with Tony, Tahnee, Kaos and Jamie to make sure that Transition/Muc-Off Factory Racing will be a force to be reckoned with.Elliot Withers, Athlete Manager at Muc-Off

 Epicly awesome. I especially loved the truck jump with fireworks (which I why I didn't like that photo in the contest with the night jump and fireworks. The TR video was NOT takign itself seriously).

 To all Team Managers:

-That's the proper way to launch your DH Team.




By far, the best team launch in ages!!!!!!

 You obviously missed the one by Santa Cruz last year. Even better.

 It's 2018, explain to me why a Redbull athlete has to wear a pink tutu?! Time to sell my PBJ.

 @Matt115lamb: I'm not a big thump your chest U.S. car fan. Our trucks run a good long while and our muscle cars, both old and new, offer cheap speed. Though both are fairly unrefined and somewhat classless.

However, having grown up with a barn full of Austin-Healeys, MG's and Triumphs in various states of disrepair (my dad was an automotive anglophile) I can say with some certainty that British wiring is a nightmare.

In all honesty I'm more of German car guy myself.

And more to the point, unfortunately there really aren't any British automotive companies anymore, which is a shame.

 OK...just to nit pick. Missed opportunity to have a 4th rider debut in the video intro, let them be the one to goon it into the exploding Land Rover, then cross their name off the roster at the video's end.

It may be in the MucOff formula. Tahnee, don't just drink from any can they throw at you. This is no ad for RedBull this time, but for your other sponsor!

I grew up in the 70s/80s and it was great times. But I really don't understand the desire to LOOK like you are from that time period. For a party? Or a killer launch video tongue firmly planted in cheek? Hell yeah. For everyday? I just don't get the attraction.
