Join me for a chat with Santa Cruz CEO, Joe Graney. Joe talks about his background and how he’s worked his way up from joining Santa Cruz as a contract engineer to now being CEO of the entire business. Hear Joe talk about the importance of the Syndicate to their marketing efforts and how they made carbon a legitimate option for gravity mountain biking. How does Joe feel engineering translates to running a business? We also chat about Santa Cruz’s insane drive to develop bikes and how even Covid didn’t slow that down, why they build their bikes in-house and plenty more. So sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Joe Graney.
