I've been following this guy all season as he lives the dream. He's a desk jockey at Pinkbike who rides enduro "privateer" on weekends. Pinkpike thought it would be interesting to see how much improvement he'd make with full support bike, parts, training, and paycheck.

Lil Pete did a headtube badge for me!

So what did that bike he built cost?
What would it cost to put a mature gentleman on the podium? |
That bike has the paint job of a Scott Genius. Off the rack, that's a $3400 bike. His sponsors came through with upgrades for his wheel set, tires, brakes etc... I don't know which wheels he got but the Mavic DeeMax line runs from like $700 -1100 a pair. I don't know if they upgraded his suspension, bikes can cost a lot more. If you watch the series you'll see it get professionally dialed in and tuned which means a lot. His physical and mental transformation over the course of the series is pretty impressive. A great bike can only do so much.

Mature gentlemen should leave this to footfootfoot's boy.

Warning bike porn.
