Meet the Business Owner

Mason and Steve O.

Business Owner

Mason’s earliest memories are of taking things apart and mostly putting them back together. She’s a wizard with bicycles having grown up working on them in the family’s shop. With over 20 years as professional mechanic under her belt she has developed a strong following. She’s hard to keep up with on the trail as well. «The trails aren’t going to shred themselves» she likes to say.

Stevo grew up finding the top speed of everything, eventually becoming a pro-​ranked racer and dirt jumper. His father being a master auto mechanic, taught him the importance of «packing one’s own parachute» because at speed, a mechanical… is not good. Working as a bike mechanic from a teen on through art school wrenching for a factory team — Steve followed his passion as a designer and brand strategist for a decade and founded our local MTB club in 2010. Soon enough the draw of wrenching on race rigs was too great, and here he is. In the off-​season, he designs and builds designer furniture.
