The Downtime Podcast

The mountain bike industry is in a weird place right now. Sales have been slow, brands are making tough calls, and things like tariffs and e-bikes are changing the landscape fast. So what does it actually look like from inside one of the most innovative component brands in the game? This week, I’m joined by Dustin Adams, CEO of Industry Nine. We dive into the real state of the industry, why certain disciplines like enduro are losing support, and what’s coming next… including things like 32-inch wheels. We also catch up on Industry Nine and hear about the big wins that Dustin and the team have found when combining I9s System spokes with We Are One’s rim technology. But this one’s bigger than just products. This is about where mountain biking is heading and who’s shaping it. So sit back, hit play and check out this episode with Dustin Adams.
