After knowing our own Louis Lhomel for over a decade now, I can assure you that this is the most dialed bike he’s ever had. At first glance, his setup looks really similar to his previous Partymaster. But once one digs a little deeper, he will notice that Louis is now riding a set of the infamous Industry 9 wheels, along with a set of custom built Fox 36 forks. We strongly believe that it’s more about the rider than about the bike, but damn, judging from Lhomel’s progression over the last year or so, the bike definitely helps a little! You might also notice the metallic badge on his headtube; these were custom-made by Gabo from Altruiste and given to us as a present. There are only 4 of those in the world, and they have been awarded to the 4 owners of The Rise, which Louis happens to be a part of. Check out all the specs below along with more picture of his build!
