  • Deep Dive Into The All New Santa Cruz Nomad
    Apr 22 2026

    The OG crowd favorite is back in its newest form. The Santa Cruz Nomad—the bike that defined the big mountain enduro category—is new and improved. The lightest it's ever been, while still utilizing the tried-and-true VPP platform, this version delivers its best ride yet.

    In this episode, Hannah sits down with Josh Kissner, Kiran, MacKinnon, and Peter Mueller-Wille—the product, suspension, and engineering minds behind the bike—to dig into the incremental changes that add up to a noticeably superior ride quality.

  • The Wide and Growing World of E-bikes
    Feb 27 2026

    Get into the details of ebikes! Why ride one? Or not? Why did we make the product and design choices we've made in our ebike line? In this episode we sit down with Product Manager Mark Matson and Rider Support's own E-bike specialist, Chris Freeny (maybe he's helped you out!). Between these two experts, we deep dive into the world of E. The fastest growing category in MTB, whether you like it or not.

    Note: Recorded BEFORE the recent storms... it has since rained.

    Nov 20 2025

    We're so excited to have our buddy Danny MacAskill on the pod to congratulate him on being inducted into the Mountain Bike Hall of Fame! He's one guy that your mom might know from Youtube- his reach goes far beyond our nerd circle of mountain bikers. Learn about his life back in Scotland, his trials bike that is made in house at Santa Cruz HQ, his love of ebikes, and a little about being one of the most talented trials rider in the world. He's also one of the most kind and unassuming pro's we know, and always down for a party.
