Designing, testing and producing a mountain bike is an enormously complex process. It delivers an end product that often times gets watered down by reviews to terms like “longer, lower, slacker”, and “modern geometry”, keeping the original intent and nuance of the bike occulted from the would-be buyer.
Yeti’s Peter “Stretch" Zawistowski has a way of making complex topics seem simple while still giving you all the detail you need to understand what goes into making a bike perform the way it does. This episode goes deep, then doses you with enough simplicity to make it all logical.
Listen, get smart, enjoy a convo with the one of the leading minds in bike engineering, and head over to our Instagram to see a diagram that Stretch worked up to illustrate the crucial datapoint of “mechanical trail”.

Riding in wet, slippery and muddy conditions is extremely tricky, and frankly, Steven and I aren't very good at it. So, we sat down with Geoff Kabush in his hometown of Squamish, BC after a very wet and rainy ride to learn what equipment changes and techniques help you ride better in the wet.
Interbike has brought the industry to our hometown, and Jeff Cayley of Worldwide Cyclery joins us for a casual discussion on overlooked details shuttling, why bike shops aren't dead and what we need to do, Park Tool's controversial law suit, the future of bike trade shows and festivals, why SRAM eTap Eagle has not been released yet, and the polarizing paint job of Steven's new Jekyll 29. Enjoy and share!
Steven is back with the new Jekyll 29, we talk about the best race we've seen in years, Yeti's new SB150 and SB130 bikes, and answer your questions on everything from protecting your frame to mixing brake pad and rotor brands. Tune in and share!
