Price Point Sponsors Miles for Miracles Charity Event

On February 20, 2011 former motocross champion Jimmy Button and his former trainer Cory Worf will be riding bicycles 2428 miles from San Diego CA to Daytona Beach FL. The objective is to raise money for spinal cord research
A little history on Jimmy and Cory; In January 2000, Jimmy was a Factory Yamaha motocross racer and Cory was his personal trainer and best friend. On January 22nd of that year Jimmy suffered paralyzing injuries when he crashed during practice for the San Diego round of the AMA Supercross series. The injuries sustained was a pinched spinal cord in the C-2 to C-6 region of his neck leaving him paralyzed from the neck down, and considered an incomplete quadriplegic. After many months of rehabilitation he was able to regain movement and be one of the very fortunate few that ever recover from these types of injuries. During this time, Cory was ever present in the long rehab process.

Now, ten years later Jimmy and Cory are teaming up to ride bicycles from the place of his accident which was Qualcomm Stadium to Daytona International Speedway to raise money for those people that were not so fortunate after suffering a spinal cord injury. The goal is to raise money for the very important research that is going on that could end the suffering a person goes through after having injured their spinal cord.

At approximately 2428 miles and averaging 60 miles per day, the ride is expected to take nearly 2 months.

The new Sette bikes are here!

A fresh crop of bikes from Sette have arrived just in time to be added to your holiday wish list. Don't ever feel bad about tacking on a big item at the last minute. Congress does it all the time.

Below you can read a brief overview of the new Sette models. There are two brand new models with the Jamr and the pavement going Xion. The hugely popular Razzo 29er is growing its family tree by being offered in two different versions for two different riding styles and Sette's proven Reken frame is now offered as a complete bike for the first time. 

The Jamr

 
The Jamr

The Jamr (pronounced jammer) is a classic 26” hard tail that’s race ready right out of the box. The backbone of the Jamr is an ultra light alloy frame with proven XC oriented geometry. The Jamr features a full Shimano SLX drive train, Avid disc brakes, and a 100mm Fox 32 RL fork. USA Cycling racing license not included. 

The Razzo 1.0 and 2.0

The latest edition of the Razzo has split into two models- the 1.0 and the 2.0. Before we get into the differences between the two,  we should note that aside from some very minor refinements to the cable routing and fresh graphics, this is the exact same 7005 aluminum frame as the original Razzo. If you missed out on the original, rest assured the ride will remain the same.

The Razzo 1.0 and 2.0 both share the same frame and Reba SL fork. The main differences are can be found in the components hanging from each frame.

The Razzo 1.0 

The Razzo 1.0 is the race bike of the duo right down to the aggressive Truvativ flat bar. Kitted out with a 9 speed Shimano SLX drive train, that’s been boosted with XT derailleurs, the Razzo 1.0 is an endurance racer’s dream sled. 

The Razzo 2.0

The Razzo 2.0 uses a trail oriented spec reminiscent of the original Razzo. The 2.0's spec does double duty as one that’s wholly race worthy while still being considerate to your bank account. . 

The Reken 

If you've got a buddy who's been thinking of hitting the dirt but has commitment issues, point him over to the new Reken complete. 

The Reken

Built around Sette's proven, no nonsense aluminum Reken frame, the Reken complete features a fully dirt worthy Shimano Deore component group and a solid RockShox Dart 3 suspension fork. It's a great option for someone who's just getting started in mountain biking and would like something much more capable than an entry level ride.

The Xion

Finally, we'll change the pace with the Xion, an all-new bike for the pavement set. 

The Xion 

The Xion is a sporty flat bar road bike that's up for a variety of tasks from commuting to tackling a multi-day charity ride.  A full Shimano Tiagra component group is mounted to a 6061 aluminum frame that utilizes a 12K full carbon fork to smooth out the ride and help keep the weight under 20lbs. One cool feature of the Xion is the use of a compact road crank. The 50 tooth big ring gives it the top end of race bike while a 36 tooth small ring allows the steepest of hills to be conquered with ease.  The Xion is available in gloss black or gloss white.
