San Luis Obispo, CA - Lezyne is proud to announce it will continue it's cooperation with Danny MacAskill for another two years. To commemorate the renewed relationship, Lezyne is excited to launch the new MacAskill Signature products: The MacAskill Block tool and MacAskill Travel Drive pump. 

Lezyne met with Danny at this year's Eurobike Expo, where talk of a signature line started. "When we met, we knew we wanted to continue our relationship with Danny. Its been a great year working with him and we are excited to be signed on for another 2-years. We also wanted to do something special with Danny by making something that meets his needs as a pro athlete." says Patrick Ribera-McKay, Lezyne's Marketing Manager. 

In no time, ideas on paper turned in to real products tailored for Danny, and the rider-mechanic in all of us. The result is a tool and travel pump that are equally suited for use on the bike at home or on the road, easy to carry, with the quality, durability, and style of Lezyne's Shop Tools. In fact, that quality and stylish design are the main reasons why the Scottish YouTube sensation chose to enter into a partnership with Lezyne.

 

MacAskill and Lezyne started their cooperation earlier this year and so far both sides have benefited from this decision. The YouTube project 'Danny MacAskill Insights,' already past the one million views benchmark, shows the star athlete returning home to Edinburgh, where he visited his roots and tried out his Lezyne equipment for the first time. (The link to the clip: http://bit.ly/yJJazg). Lezyne also worked with Danny over the summer, where Danny took part in a bike mechanic workshop at a trial youth camp. Lezyne supported this event with a screwdriver workshop, where they taught kids how to utilize a bike multi-tool. You’ll find the video on: http://win.gs/ZGqJS8

The MacAskill Series will be available in stores starting February 2013. For more details on the MacAskill Signature Series, see them on Lezyne's website here>>

Lezyne is proud to announce that 4x racer and freerider Angie Hohenwarter will join our team of Ambassadors in 2013. Angie has been riding and racing since she was 9 years old. She started with XC, but got bored and moved on to DH and 4X. Now she rides her bike all around the world, sharing her passion for cycling with everyone she comes across. Lezyne first talked to Angie at this year's Eurobike tradeshow, where she met with Marketing Manager, Patrick Ribera-Mckay. "Angie's passion for cycling, results, and her plans for what she wants to do in 2013 left an impression. We are glad to have her on board and look forward to working together next year," said McKay. Angie is a long-time Lezyne fan and had this to say about joining the team. "I'm stoked to be with Lezyne now. Lezyne always was such an eye catcher for me. I love the simple and strong design, and function of their products and I can't imagine a better partner to take with me on my travels because now 100% prepared for every situation. Thanks guys!"

For 2013, Angie will be riding with Lezyne's multi-tools, pump, tire repair, organizers, and LED light systems.

Bobby McMullen is featured in Adventure Sports Journal -- "Racing Blind: How one person is changing what's possible on a mountain bike". This is such awesome exposure for Bobby and another step towards enlightening us on exactly how and why Bobby rides mountain bikes.

Mike Hall. What a stud. Enough said. Follow him with the links below. This is a true adventure. Lezyne couldn't be happier to support people who push the boundaries of what is possible.

 

Superhero Enduro rider Remy Absalon signs with Lezyne for the 2012 season. We cannot wait to see where he goes and what he accomplishes this coming year.

 

 

 

CG on top of the podium at the start of the year. Good things to come. Some people may think he's "getting old", but we at Lezyne very much disagree and this is why.

Lezyne has been fortunate enough to sign on with the ever-talented bike rider Danny Macaskill. Talent for days.....a match made in heaven.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bobby McMullen killed it this last weekend. No news there.
