Ben Wallace and Paul Ryan swap bikes for a session…
Even though Ben Wallace and Paul Ryan both ride for Mongoose, that’s about where the similarities on their bike setups end. Ben runs a longer bike with brakes, some seat post and plenty of room for his height, geared toward ramps and trails. Paul runs a tighter setup with no brakes, a little slack in the chain and is geared toward street. These two guys swapped bikes for a session and needless to say, it was pretty funny watching them try to adjust to the different setups. Even though it was weird, it looks like they had little trouble getting some clips!
“It’s crazy how different someone else’s can bike feel even with subtle differences in geometry–let alone an entirely different setup style. With the Mongoose Jam 2018 at Woodward in full swing, Paul Ryan and Ben Wallace had some fun with their warm up session by swapping bikes for a bit. Their bikes couldn’t be much more different—and Paul’s bike is like half the size of Ben’s—but they adjusted almost immediately and started to shred.
