Video – UR switches to NS Bikes

by 1

NS Bikes is the new bike sponsor of the UR Team who will compete in downhill, freeride and enduro events this year.

NS Bikes has taken over from Polygon as the main title for the UR Team supplying the riders with downhill, freeride and enduro bikes to complete on this coming season. Those of us who have followed the team rumours won’t be too shocked by the news, which was leaked earlier in the year, but it’s still a big move for a brand that has been mainly focussed on sponsoring freeride athletes.

Wow… This is a big deal for us but from the very beginning, we knew that the chemistry was right with these guys!

NS Bikes is all about character. You can say anything about our bikes, but one thing is for sure: they are never boring or normal! That is EXACTLY what we see in the UR team. Each rider has a unique and distinct style, different background, and specialty. What’s more, the whole UR package just screams FAST & FUN! This is EXACTLY what NS is all about and this is what really stole our hearts.

Our whole company is honored to be part of this setup and with all this extra horsepower we know we can get to the next level and continue with our mission of letting the world know how awesome mountain bikes are!

Szymon Kobyliński / NS Bikes founder and CEO


It’s always a big change to ride a new bike for a team. Over the last 12 years our team has ridden small niche bike brands but also bigger factory brands. We already feel right at home with NS Bikes which I think has a perfect balance between great products, professionalism and passionate people. NS also has a right amount of craziness being led by Szymon, the badass owner who is a former Rockstar, Freerider and well-rounded racer.

On the product side, NS Bikes are already known to make the most reliable bikes in the industry, and we are going to work closely together to try to make those bikes even faster.

We are going to get inspired by their motto “Stay true” and keep working hard to have a positive impact in what we do for our riders, our partners, our sports and our environment.

Fabien “CousCous” Cousinié, Team manager & rider

The NS Bikes UR Team includes Sam Reynolds, Mick Hannah, Tracey Hannah, Joe Breeden and 13 year old Vinci Vodan.
