MY BIKE<br />
SANDRA — NORCO RAMPAGE TEAM<br />
Who are you and what do you do at<br />
<strong>Bikester</strong>?<br />
Hi! I‘m Sandra, and I work in the <strong>Bikester</strong><br />
store in Stockholm. Working in the shop,<br />
I can share my love of cycling every day. I<br />
used to be a tour guide in Europe, and when<br />
I moved back home to Sweden, I chose<br />
Stockholm because of the amazing cycling<br />
scene here. During the summer you‘ll find me<br />
riding one of the ski-lift accessible downhill<br />
parks, and in the winter I ride the indoor<br />
bike-parks so I can avoid the snow and cold!<br />
Which bike do you ride and why?<br />
I ride a Norco Rampage Team with 26-inch<br />
wheels. It‘s a dirt bike I use to sharpen my<br />
jumping technique with geometry that‘s ideal<br />
for everything from dirt jumps and riding<br />
pump tracks to practising tricks in a foam pit.<br />
I removed the front brake and shortened the<br />
handlebars to make certain tricks easier and<br />
to get a better position on the bike. It seems<br />
to have worked pretty well as I did a 360 on<br />
my first attempt, something I struggled with<br />
before!<br />
