Ultimate Bike Check With Jesse Melamed

October 6, 2021

You’ve been asking for bike checks and here is the first one, with the the one and only Jesse Melamed. Jesse was my obvious first choice, as he’s so into bike setup and is always experimenting, as you’ll no doubt know if you’ve heard him on the podcast before. We caught up the morning of the pro-stage race at the Tweed Valley EWS to check out his current Rocky Mountain Altitude. There are some great nuggets of information here from Jesse, who is a rider that’s not afraid to try things that maybe aren’t considered the norm. Sit back, hit play and listen to this bike check episode with Jesse Melamed.
