Matt Cordova On Verde Bikes

Matt Cordova is now doing it for Verde Bikes! It was announced back in December that Matt had parted ways with SE Bikes, and we figured it was only a matter of time before he found himself a new sponsor. Matt is a great fit for Verde with his smooth style that is so fun to watch, so we’re excited to see where things go with this new deal. Get the official word from Verde below!

“Hit refresh! Verde Bikes is pleased to announce the addition of all-terrain commando Matt Cordova to our factory team. Matt’s wide open style and outrageous abilities on the concrete and dirt are a perfect fit for the Verde vibe. Here’s what he had to say about coming onboard: “I’ve always been a fan of Verde and their image, and I’m super stoked to be joining the family. The team is already oozing of style, and I’m looking forward to good times with those guys.” Look for Matt to be blasting bowls and ripping lines at the trails on the Verde Oxbridge while we work on developing a signature frame with him. On to a new chapter with Matt and Verde. We are looking forward to it.” – Verde Bikes
