Seat Time

05/28/2026

As dirt bikers, stock pegs usually get the job done. Most riders do not think about upgrading unless their pegs are worn out or they need to adjust rider position.

On the mountain bike side, it is a different story. Stock plastic pedals, especially on entry level bikes, often lack grip and durability. If you are using a MTB as a cross training tool, or just for fun, upgrading your pedals can make a noticeable difference in control and fun.

I’ve been running Composite Pedals for a long time. They are fully serviceable with replaceable pins and offer great grip at a reasonable price. However, in rocky terrain, composite pedals can take more abuse. I have seen riders lose pins after impacts with rocks or logs, which can reduce performance over time.

For more demanding conditions, a metal pedal may be the better choice. For most riders though, a quality composite pedal is a necessary step up from stock.

280 Utility Can Caddies still here. I don’t just want to toss them, but not sure what to do with them. I’m down to give them away at a race, or $10 shipping. Any ideas or thoughts?!

Seat Time content from 2025 was about my growth as a rider and racer. I realized I became a better human in the process. Due to that, I want to help others find that same growth. Here’s the introduction to the book I started, any feedback is appreciated.

I’m writing a book about what my 2025 race season taught me. Here’s the draft intro, and I’d love your help improving it

Good luck this weekend in Georgia anecracing racers! Here’s a look back at 2025 if you want a sneak peak. 🤘🏻🤙🏻⚡️

Rain-soaked Georgia clay made Cherokee National Enduro the slickest race yet. Learning to find speed through ruts, mistakes, and challenging conditions.

If you’ve been wondering where I went, it was here. After the back injury before Farm14 it was 100% recovery mode. I got my back better and tackled a 52 mile ultra marathon. Don’t let anyone tell you “welcome to getting older”. If they want to accept that mindset, let them. You can always keep working on you.

If you have t been wondering, that’s ok too. See ya on the trail.

Thank you for letting me put the bikes together. It’s been a hot minute, but I enjoyed the process. The Talon 1 is quite the hardtail for the price. I’m excited for the well met standards for upgradability. this summer should be fun, as well as warm 🥵. Regardless of the bikes, we’ll see ya on the trails. Enjoy 🤘🏻🤙🏻⚡️

Let’s Stop Holding Ourselves Back
We don’t need to overhaul our entire lives. But we do need to be honest about what we want from riding and what’s really in the way.

Do this:
- Grab a piece of paper and write three columns: Bike / Body / Mind.
- Under each, write one weakness you’re curious about improving.
- Circle the one that feels most important right now, and commit the next month to gently but consistently working on just that.

If you make this list, share it somewhere and tag Seat Time‼
