Maxxis Tires Presents - Yehhh Connor

The Maxxis Rubber Side Down series is back for 2016, with Connor Fearon kicking off proceedings back home in 'R'adelaide.

"Connor Fearon born in Adelaide, South Australia has been part of the Kona Factory team nearly as long as he's been running Maxxis Tyres...

His reserved and modest personality couldn't be further removed when he steps foot over two wheels, consistently placing him in the top 10 overall on the UCI World Cup circuit and becoming a fan favourite for his loose, Ozzy style.

You'll be surprised to learn that when home, his downhill bike doesn't see much action. We aren't all blessed with huge mountains and chairlifts, but what Radelaide lacks in height it certainly makes up for with a buzzing scene and huge variety of trails.

Flat pedals, Tuesday night parmys and slapping turns. Yehhh Connor!!"
