Ramsay, the flying Scotsman

23. February 2021

Ramsay MacFarlane is Enduro racer, MTB guide and trail coach in Scotland. He is one of those riders who are thrilled about innovations in mountain biking. Riding daily and in all weather conditions in the Scottish Highlands, Ramsay counts on his “low-wear gearbox-bikes” from Nicolai for years – the full-suspension bike Ion G16 GPI for the rough terrain and the hardtail Argon for more moderate use and kids’ courses. On Instagram and YouTube, Ramsay shares his experiences with the Pinion/Gates drive train setup in a very entertaining way!
