Jeff Lenosky and Giant part ways....

[walter]

Case gonna run him out

:getsome:

You must not have taste buds..........

 

[pooriggy]

I think he played on that classic album Polka, Polka, Polka.

 

[shrpshtr325]

Never heard of him.

you been living under a rock?


or just stuck at the ford dealership?

I saw him riding at Tourne last Friday.... he was on a Giant.

 

[Juggernaut]

He’s just starting to gain traction in the YouTube rotation too. The timing on the surface is odd. But, we’re not behind the scenes, it was a long run which means probably a fair amount of turnover at Giant HQ. happens everywhere unfortunately.

He’s great at what he does and is a genuinely good person. Looking forward to what he does next.

Pedal Montclair posted a pic on instagram about a week ago with Jeff in the store about to go ride with their Pivot rep.... hmmmmm.

I caught that too. Didn't put 2 and 2 together until he posted the split. I assumed it would be SC because Lance works for them now.

I joked on his FB that it had to do with STP availibity. Giant has basically never had them and then dropped the model all together a few years back. Maybe he'll end up back on a Schwinn.

Even without knowing about the Pedal Montclair thing, Pivot makes sense since he's buds with Aaron Chase, Pivot has all the bike types he needs, and Pivot has other sponsored non-racer types (like Brice Shirbach, who i know Jeff rode with recently). Unless Brice is passing the Pivot vlogger torch to Jeff? hmmm. Oh, i also think Jeff was out in AZ in the past few months for a Trail Boss vid so maybe he went to Pivot HQ. If this is true, Jeff must be copying me since i've been on Giants since 2001 and just got a Pivot last year

Heard Huffy is making a comeback and they want him to lead the charge.

 

[V-Dub]

I'm going to guess it's not Pivot because why would they have Jeff and AC doing very similar jobs?

 

[mattybfat]

With inter bike canceling this year I have the feeling the tariff thing is squeezing the bike industry. I feel bad for the brick and mortar shops and folks like Jeff as the squeeze is gonna get tighter I would assume.

I've posted this before, but when I was in high school, we lived in the same town and I'd knock on his front door to get him to come out to do bmx freestyle tricks for us. Fast forward 20+ years later and we live in the same town again. I'm gonna go start knocking on his front door again.

You were the reason he moved the 1st time. Let him be.. :<)

I can see him riding for Transition or SC. Hopefully it's VanDessel as a Jersey guy.

Van Dessel has an FS?

 

[V-Dub]

Transition would be a good fit (good bikes cool company) with Taylor ham as a secondary sponsor

 

[Dave Taylor]

Taylor ham

The only part that matters

What’s Taylor Ham?

Yeah, no other companies have more than one person doing the same thing.

I think Lenosky appeals more to the trail rider as Chase is more DH/Freeride. Sure, Lenosky does that but I think he is more relatable to the average rider.

 

[jdog]

Pivot?

This is my personal guess

 

[Dave Taylor]

What’s Taylor Ham?

Oh, u must be from Pennsylvania.
