Bikecheck: John Seip's Partymaster V2
This is by far my favourite thing when reading my emails. A few days ago, John Seip sent in a full bikecheck with some kind words about how he likes his new bike, just like that. He went for breakfast with his son and snapped some photos along the way. I had never heard of Nantucket Island in Massachusetts, but I'm glad I have now. Place looks beautiful! Keep on reading for all the specs and some beautiful photos, but the best part about this whole thing is him popping huge bunnyhops on the way to get breakfast. Love it!
The Rise Partymaster V.2 is the most versatile frame I have ever ridden. I have owned multiple generations of Specialized P.3, NS Majesty Park, and Commencal Absolut. The Partymaster is a blend of the best attributes of each of those frames. It is easy to manual, perfect for street riding and yet thrives on quarter pipes, bowls and somehow feels stable when going big and fast.
I love the way this bike looks, feels, and rides! Huge thank you to The Rise Mtb company for your continuous positive contributions to the mountain bike community and for making the perfect DJ frame!
