Here’s a little gem we caught floating around on Facebook. It looks like Pete Sawyer has his own signature 4-piece Sterling bars in the works that work off a tweaked geometry of his 2-piece bars currently available from Wethepeople. These bars will be dropping later this year and feature a rise of 9.5″, 29″ width, 4-degrees of upsweep and 11-degrees of backsweep! Expect more details closer to the release!
We have always been a big fan of Dan Foley and his pretty minimalistic style that applies to his riding and his setups! This past week, we were treated to his signature Cadence frame promo from Wethepeople and we were loving the look of his setup! We figured now was no better time than ever to get a closer look at Dan’s current setup he’s running, talk about the Cadence frame and find out what else is new with him! Let’s get into this!

Have you given Wethepeople’s 2015 Trust complete bike a look yet? Take a look at this quick promo video featuring Jason Colledge that gives you a real close up view!
“The Trust has always maintained a level of sophistication among our range and this year’s model is no different. Saltplus slick tires in 2.35 and 2.2 wrap around a set of awesome Éclat Trippin blue faded to chrome polish rims. A choice of top tube sizes in 20.5″ or 21” and a larger 27t sprocket make this a little slice of radness.”
Here’s some news that might come as a bit of a surprise to some of you! Chester Blacksmith, Andrew Jackson and Raul Ruiz have all stepped down from the Wethepeople Pro team and are now on the Family team. You can get the details below! It’s kind of weird seeing the “older” guys starting to step out of the light to make room for the younger up and comers. Hopefully we’ll still see plenty of all three of these guys for years to come!
“For those who are interested to know, Chester Blacksmith, Andrew Jackson and Raul Ruiz are no longer riding for the PRO team however they are now part of the WTP family section. They still ride WTP parts and frames and we will continue to support them.” – Wethepeople
Wethepeople dropped a bike check with the one and only, Max Gaertig and his current CREAM setup that’s looking so good. You can get a closer look at the bike and find out just what he’s running these days right here!
Wethepeople sent through this quick video giving us a closer look at their 2015 Volta complete bike with a few clips from Pete Sawyer mixed in for good measure! Looks like a dialed unit to us!
“The Volta is made for the true PRO rider out there. It’s built with strength in mind, fully equipped for the PRO life. That’s why we equipped the Volta with a set of the Wethepeople Royal cranks; a true force to be reckoned with. We also threw in some Salt plus Magic forks with invest cast dropouts and a set of Éclat Dynamic front and rear hubs with all new rear 14 mm female axle. Finish it off with a high set of 9” bars and a Wethepeople Seize front-loading stem and this really is ready for anything.”
Wethepeople dropped this quick promo video giving us a closer look at their 2015 Zodiac complete along with a few clips from Pete Sawyer and Jason Colledge who took one for a spin!
“Straight away you will notice the amazing black faded to chrome polish and the Éclat OZ fat pivotal seat. The Zodiac is made for the heavy street rider with an 8.8 rise full crmo bar and Éclat ridgestone tires in the front and rear. A great bike fresh out of the packaging.

We could have told you this one was a must see before even hitting play! Dan Foley coming through with some AMAZING riding (and dialed filming and editing as usual) to promote his new signature Cadence frame from Wethepeople! Hit play! You won’t regret it!
“One of the most naturally talented and stylish riders of his generation, Dan Foley’s recent addition to the WTP pro team was one we welcomed with open arms. Dan needed a frame that was both simple and elegant to match his riding style, yet at the same time strong enough to hold up to multiple kinds of riding. The Cadence frame was born from this very necessity and uses classic looks mixed Dan’s favored geometry and with our most up to date frame building technology. Dan wanted a taller 9″ standover and a slightly longer 13.6″ chainstay to keep this thing stable when blasting ramps, but a steep 75 degree headtube to make the Cadence as agile as possible during technical tricks. Despite it’s classic look, don’t let the Cadence frame fool you, this is one tough weapon with oval chainstays and double gussets up front. After a year of testing, Dan gave the Cadence frame a thumbs up and we couldn’t be more stoked on the finished product.
Includes lifetime guarantee.
Additional filming: Rob Darden, Alex Topper.”
