This season I have spent the vast majority of my riding days on one bike (which is unheard of for me) and I have to say that I've had a pretty great season. Typically I've had a small stable of bikes that accommodated a variety of riding styles, but this season I decided to try what most people have to do and ride the same bike all the time. The Intense SS was the frame I chose to start with for a variety of reasons, the biggest being its versatility in regards to build up options.

Have a look at the Intense SS in a Freeride and in a All Mountain build form inside:

Intense Cycles in an effort to improve the level of service to its dealers has partnered with independent reps in selected areas throughout the U.S. “Having quality reps in the field will allow us to react quicker to our dealer’s needs and will provide us with valuable feedback from the marketplace.” Intense is currently working with The Modus Sport group in the Pacific Northwest, Bay Area Cycling in Northern California, Michael Lax in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana and Breakaway Sports In New England. “We plan on adding more territories in the future and will be looking for independent reps or groups in key markets”

Intense Cycles continues to build its dealer and distributor network throughout the U.S. and abroad and in an effort to support the brick and mortar dealers around the globe, Intense has terminated relationships with several online/mail order retailers. “There are still places in the world where you cannot walk into a shop and purchase an Intense frame or bike, so we understand the reason for an online/mail order presence, but as we bring on more dealers, the need for multiple internet retailers is no longer there. The companies we have chosen to partner with have proven over the years to not only present Intense in a professional manner, hold our MSRP and provide after sales service and support, but have also promoted our brand through demo programs, race teams, open house and other events. In the short term this move may cost us some sales, but we believe that in the long term we will gain them back, and more, by supporting our dealer and distributor network”
