It’s time to catch up with possibly the most exciting project in mountain biking. I’m joined by Neko and Logan Mulally from Frameworks Racing. As you probably know, Neko has developed his own bike to race this season and built his own team, including his brother Logan as his videographer. We sat down at Logan’s place in Tennessee to chat all things Frameworks. Find out what the response to the project has been like. Hear how testing of the high pivot bike has gone and what Neko’s planning to race in Lourdes. We chat about Neko’s finger injury, choosing a mechanic, putting the bike into production and much more. So sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Neko and Logan.
You can follow Frameworks on Instagram @frameworksracing and Neko @nekomulally.

Shimano
Shimano have recently launched their new gravity focussed flat pedal shoe, the GR9. It features their brand new gravity-optimised Ultread sole that combines the rubber compound and the sole design to create the perfect balance of grip and durability. I’ve been using the shoe for the past few weeks, so I can’t really comment on durability yet although there is no evidence of any damage from the pedal pins after the first few rides. What I can comment on is the grip. For me, they’ve got the balance right, I feel totally connected to the bike and I’m not worried about my foot slipping on the pedals, but I don’t feel so locked in that I can’t make minor adjustments to my foot position on the pedal.
The new GR9 is available now from your local Shimano dealer and you can check it out at mtb.shimano.com.
WeAreOne Composites
I've been using WeAreOne wheels for nearly 4 years now and I'm a massive fan. I'm currently running a Faction 29er up front and a Union 27.5 in the rear and I love them. I feel like they strike a lovely balance of being precise but not so stiff that they punish you for being a millimetre offline. The quality and finish of the product is also second to none.
