nsmb.com and SRAM partner again for 2007

The nsmb freeride team will be on
SRAM X.O for the fourth year


The nsmb.com Freeride Team and SRAM will be working together again for the 2007 season. The team will run SRAM ’s bomber X.O components while filming, shooting, racing, slopestyling, dirt jump comping and hitting the trails with the bros.

This will be the fourth season for this partnership, and the boys - Eamonn Duignan, Benton Hennig, Trevor Hansen, Ryan Hayes, Neil Meier, Ian Nelson, Ryan Newman and Jerry Willows - are stoked to be running the smooth shifting, tough drivetrain from SRAM.

Last season the nsmb team and the SRAM gear was seen at Crankworx, “ClawWorx”, AIRprentice 3, the famous North Shore Ripper series, Dangerous Dan’s Flow Show, Mount 7 Psychosis, NORBA, Canada Cup and BC Cup races. 

Team members appeared in a number of videos including Pist 'N Broke's Collectively Krankin' the Disorder, North Shore Extreme 9, Elemental, the Bike Compilation and AIRprentice – the short film.   Other media caught the team in Mountain Biking UK magazine, Decline magazine, German Mountain Bike magazine and on Ride Guide TV.

It was a great year for the boys thanks to their quality SRAM drivetrain components.
