Privateer is for mountain bikers who already know the obvious; for riders who have paid their dues in sweat and dust and broken bone, and are irrevocably hooked. If you've got mountain biking and it's got you, a deep emotional connection exists that is agony to even try and explain: a permanent bond with the trails, the sounds, the fear, the great outdoors, the beads of sweat, the blood, the bruises, the beer - a bond between rider, bike and terrain that grips forever. You do not want to be told what to buy, how to ride or where to go. You much prefer to get closer to the spirit of the thing.
