You must be hyped to have a signature frame colorway. How did it come about?

So hyped! A while back I was on the phone with Dave over at WTP and he brought up the idea of an AM team frame, where each size was a different color. Lucky for me he asked if I’d like to pick the 20.75 TT color.

Can you explain more about the Trigger frame and what makes it a perfect match for your riding?

Each frame size is specific to the top tube length, changing the geometry around the frame as it’s increased. I really enjoy the short backend, it helps a lot with more techy manoeuvres.

How much input did you have on the color and graphics?

At first I had no idea, I wanted the color to be unique but also not blown out. After listening to one of my favorite albums, “Dirt” by Alice In Chains I really like the sand tone on the cover so I sent it over. They hit me back with the color that the frame is now and a few different sticker color options. So respectfully I chose red.

Which parts are you most specific about?

I feel like I’m not too specific about my setup, I do like bigger rims for high impact spots and my neglect for working on my wheels!

You made it out to the UK for the WTP Haus last year. What travel plans do you have for 2023? Anything else you have going on?

London was amazing, my first time riding outside the U.S. did not disappoint. This year I’m road-tripping to swampfest which will be a wild time but other than that hopefully just go anywhere new, that’s always the goal.

Which Wethepeople part could you never live without?

I’ve re ordered the pathfinder bars a few times now, quality stuff.

How's that hybrid freecoaster going? What do you like about it?

The hybrid coaster is great, the hub is strong and I’ve never had issues with the slack.

“Here at Wethepeople, we have always respected the work ethic and productivity of our am team. Some of the most dynamic and heavy up-and-comers in the game, we wanted to work with the future of our brand on a totally new frame concept that mixes adaptive geometry and tougher materials to make a super durable frame designed to fit any rider out there. The Trigger frame features geometry that changes as the top tube length increases allowing the rider to be on a frame that suits them down to a tee. We wanted to reward a selection of our am team with their very own signature colorways in the same frame size they ride so the Trigger frame will be available in colourways for Stephan Atencio (20.5"), Riley Smith (20.75") and Dan Banks (21"). The smooth bottom bracket shell helps reduce drag or hang-ups on grinds, and the unique offset machined headtube allows for stronger junction and cleaner tube fitment where you need it the most.” - Wethepeople
