Ellsworth Handcrafted Bicycles has announced Jack Reading, a professional downhill racer from the United Kingdom, as its latest sponsored team rider. Reading, a 20-year-old neo pro, is also supported by Freeborn, the exclusive UK Distributor for Ellsworth for almost ten years.
Ellsworth Handcrafted Bicycles has assembled a strong team of gravity riders who are competing in national and World Cup events for the 2009 season.
The Dare uses Ellsworth's trademark big-link four-bar rear suspension--ICT (Instant Center Tracking).
As a relative newcomer to professional downhill racing, Reading has grown increasingly fond of his Ellsworth Project Pink
Dare. “I am confident in saying that the Dare is the best downhill bike on the market right now. The quality of ride on every track I've ridden has been phenomenal,” said Reading.
(No Picture of Jack, sorry)
