Jesse Melamed on his season so far, his bike changes, working with Fabien Barel, eBikes and more

Today we’re joined by Enduro star, Jesse Melamed. After winning the overall in 2022, Jesse made a big move from Rocky Mountain to Canyon, so we sat down to see how it’s going. Hear how Jesse has chosen and setup his bike for the season. We discuss some of the changes he’s made over the past year and the influence that Fabien Barel has had on that. Hear Jesse talk about what it takes to win an EDR these days, along with discussing the state of the sport, the impact of eBike racing and find out if we’ll see Jesse racing downhill any time soon.
