It's great to see strong national teams focussed on providing the necessary support aspiring athletes need to succeed in their given discipline. While UK distributor Saddleback, might be a new name to many, their reputation in the world of road cycling is second to none. Having recently acquired the UK distribution of Intense Cycles and Troy Lee Designs, two brands for whom racing is life, Saddleback are rolling out a race team to rival the best of them...
| We set out to choose a team of riders that represented the Saddleback ethos and we believe we achieved exactly that. The rider roster is seven strong and will cover downhill and enduro Internationally. We have seasoned experienced racers, young up and coming stars and a great support team of Mechanics and Strength trainers.—Saddleback. |
| Each and every brand involved with Intense Racing UK has a deep-rooted race heritage, racing is their life blood and is a huge influence on everything they do. Here at Saddleback our focus and passion are also racing. Intense Racing UK is our first ever mountain bike race team and we aim to deliver the best product and race support to a select team of Elite riders who can not only deliver results but also embody the passion for racing with a positive and fun approach to competition that the supporting brands have nurtured over the last 30-years.— Martin Astley, Intense Cycles and Troy Lee Designs Brand Manager. |
