Back in 2009 I was invited to a bike festival in the Philippines. While I was there I met many people and had lots of fun. One fond memory was meeting and riding with Brian Lopes. He really knows how to ride a bike! He tried my bike, liked the ride and was interested in getting one.
You can see him checking out my bike as I raced in the downhill race at the festival while we were there.

Fun video of Hans and I hunting Brian down with a bow and arrow in the philippines.
Not too long ago Brian called me here at the shop. We talked and he ended up ordering a bike built with a Ti LWB Diamond frame and Truss fork with carbon Jones H-Bars and C-Rims. I was also just about to build myself a new bike so we built these two together.
He came by to pick up his bike and we rode around popping wheelies and talking about bikes. Good times.
It’s great to have such an awesome rider on one of our bikes.
Hope you enjoy the ride Brian!
Thanks!
