The Performance Package
Intended for riders who want to transform key aspects in their riding ultimately to expand their comfort zone on what’s possible. This process enables tools that can sustain your progress for a lifetime.
After working with you to define your goals each session is purpose-built to refine position and stability, braking and pressure control, range of movement and other advanced techniques.
Every lesson delivers clear objectives and measurable outcomes, helping you create lasting, effective movement patterns and consistent responses to the trail regardless of whether you choose a 3, 5, or 10-lesson package.
BRAKE ACE: PERFORMANCE COACHING | Braking sensors + analysis.
Turning braking data into faster, smarter riding.
BrakeAce is the world’s first brake-power sensor and coaching app designed to measure one of the most critical—and least understood—skills in mountain biking: braking.
By analysing not just when and how much you brake, but why you brake in specific sections of trail, BrakeAce gives deep insight into your decision-making on the bike. These insights allow us to shift the focus beyond braking alone and target the broader skills that make you a more capable, confident, and focused rider.
