After a successful Winter Gravity Series pre-season, we are excited to officially announce our support of the 2022 Fezzari Factory Enduro Racing Team. This crew of six riders from across the country will be putting it all out in the line at the Big Mountain Enduro Series, California Enduro Series, Nationals and North American EWS in their respective categories. The riders will be racing the all-new Fezzari La Sal, complete with the DVO Oynx SC D1 fork and Topaz 2 or Jade X shocks, depending on the terrain and rider preference. The Fezzari La Sal with the DVO suspension sets, along with parts from the other sponsors, is a race-bred machine. We join VelociRAX, TRP Cycling, Trail Manos, DT Swiss, Club Ride Apparel, Ride Concepts, Cush Core, Fasst Company, Maxxis, Mountain Racing Products, SCC Tech, Look Cycle, WHT LBL Custom Mountain Bike Apparel and Kogel Bearings in supporting the new team.
We recently spent a long weekend in Saint George, Utah where we worked to dial in the racer's suspension. These riders are ready to go racing!

]]>A local mountain biker reached out anonymously to Trail Manos to provide the gloves. Trail Manos is an Arizona-based company specializing in mountain biking equipment and apparel and is an official sponsor of the National Interscholastic Cycling Association.
Tim Yerkes, co-owner of Trail Manos, delivered the gloves to Payne Junior High School Coach James Collier at the school, 7655 S. Higley Road in Queen Creek . The student bikers were excited and thankful about receiving matching team gloves.
Trail Manos MTB Gloves are available in six distinct patterns with one being created by a local Native American artist, OXDX Clothing, who pays tribute to and celebrates indigenous art and design.
A portion of sales goes to support NICA’s mission to develop interscholastic mountain biking programs for student-athletes across the United States.
Also receiving a portion of sales is Silver Stallion Bicycle and Coffee, which aims to develop skills among youth and young adults in bicycle repair and bikes in New Mexico and the Navajo Nation.

]]>TrailManos gloves are the perfect riding glove for most conditions. They are constructed with mid-weight upper stretch fabric and a seamless perforated palm that provides the comfort and breathability you’d expect in a do-everything glove. I primarily tested these in HOT Arizona and never found my grip to slip, despite the fact that I was literally dripping in moisture. The construction and fit of the TrailManos gloves are similar to HandUp. Based on the adult (unisex) sizing, I ordered an XS and they fit great. They were a little snug at first, but the 4-way stretch molds to your fingers quickly as you start riding. The velcro-free wrist allows you to slip the gloves on and off easily and they sit low and neat on the wrists. Bonus: when you flip your palm, you will also notice a fun yeti riding a bicycle on the other side. It’s the little things.
Aside from the plethora of eye-catching designs, my favorite feature is the terrycloth sweat wipe on the thumb. I may be biased here, but the terrycloth sweat wipe is an absolute must for trail riding gloves and TrailManos nailed it.
If you’re looking for a quality, inexpensive, everyday riding glove that gives back to youth organizations and underserved communities you can’t go wrong with TrailManos. At the low price of $27, your wallet and all of the charities involved will thank you.
