Ethan Nell's and Dylan Stark's Custom YT TUES Builds for Rampage

Red Bull Rampage is one of the most prolific events on the mountain bike calendar, it puts our niche sport into mainstream viewership. Every year, fans, brands and of course the riders anticipate Red Bull Rampage like no other, and it’s not just for the riding. As is the tradition, most riders get custom painted bikes and gear, which gives us a chance to celebrate what the riders are about to go through, mentally and physically.

“The frame design reflects the spirit of Rampage and its riders. The idea comes from the harsh reality of nature - Rampage often looks like a fight. It's the biggest freeride event, and the imagery of wild, untamed animals fits the scene perfectly. I am very honored to play a small part in this event and to see the riders enjoying their frames! Can't wait to see them in action." – Dennis Dastig, YT Senior Graphic Designer
