How long have you been riding for Free Agent now?
TJ: About 3 years

What’s the advantage of riding big tires?
TJ: Way more control/traction & less slide outs.

Are you a decent bike mechanic?
TJ: yea I like dialing in my bike, I always know what's loose or broke so I'm always workin on the ride makin' sure it stays dialed!

What’s your favourite local bike shop?
TJ: Heath Pinter's bike shop at his house.

What are the modifications you made to your bike?
TJ: I like to keep my chain tight, cut my bars half an inch on each side!

Do you have help from anyone getting the right parts for your bike?
TJ: I usually get parts from Freeagent and Heath Pinter.
