Jeff Lenosky’s Ridiculous Dream Bike.
ReDikyelous [ ri-dik-yuh-luhs ] Slang. absurdly or unbelievably good, bad, crazy, etc.:-
In April, Jeff Lenosk’s van got broken into and his SQWEEB full suspension 29er and custom 27.5” hardtail trials bike were stolen. He spent the next several weeks riding his Dikyelous2 hardtail. Being down from three bikes to one, he began to dream of a ridiculous bike that would combine elements of them all. Working in a small, in-house fabrication shop full of bike riders, it didn’t take long for Jeff’s ridiculous dream to turn into ReDikyelous.
The ReDikyelous is longer, slacker, lower and more maneuverable than any hardtail we’ve ever offered. Dreamt up from a storied career of technical singletrack, bike parks, jumps and urban shredding, Jeff designed his dream rig to be the ultimate, stranded on a deserted island, multi-tool 29er hardtail.
“I’ve been riding bikes professionally for a really long time. I never had the opportunity to start with a white paper and design a bike that’s made for the way I like to ride. Hardtail mountain bikes have always been at the center of my riding due to my love of observed trials and urban freeride but I never had the chance to have one for trail riding. When I started working with Reeb I had the chance to build the ultimate bike I want to ride. The result was the ReDikyelous.” Jeff Lenosky.
