Nigel Wade is the inventor of the Shockwiz, and his story shows what can be achieved with a good idea and a lot of hard work. Nigel took the Shockwiz from a personal interest, through a seed of a product idea, to Kickstarter in order to fund development and manufacturing, and ultimately to SRAM/Quarq to launch to the mass market. People like Nigel are fundamental to the progression of our sport, so it was great to sit down and find out more about him, and how he got the Shockwiz to market. Have a listen to an inspiring story of what it takes to bring a novel mountain bike product to market.
