Contender's eMTB Tech Buyer's Guide

Written by Joseph Bonacci, on Mar 29, 2023

With electric mountain bikes growing in popularity, there has also been a growth in people saying you shouldn’t buy one. Their reasons are usually something like, “You’re not old enough,” “You aren’t injured,” or “You’re going to ruin the trails.” To put it simply, this is a load of hooey....

Written by Isaac Boyden, on Mar 26, 2023

Written by Contender Bicycles, on Mar 17, 2023

We all love the BMC Kaius. Based on how often folks contact us about BMC’s latest gravel bike, that is. And there is good reason for that: the more folks ride gravel bikes, the more they realize they don’t necessarily need a Swiss Army knife-type of bike. Rather, they want the confidence...

Isaac's Tech Review of his Santa Cruz Hightower

Written by Isaac Boyden, on Mar 15, 2023

With a handful of trail bike releases over the last year, most of them like the SCOTT Genius and the 5010 are significant revisions of previous models while others like the SCOR 4060 are completely brand new. During these new bike launches and changes, the Hightower got lost in the media storm...
