Griz Joins X-Fusion/ Intense

Posted: Jul 6, 2009

Source: X-Fusion

Last week Ryan Condrashoff was informed by doctors that the wrist injury he suffered at the US OPEN along with the broken collarbone is a lot more serious then initially expected. He has ligament and bone damage that needs to be surgically fixed leaving him out the rest of the season. We all were very bummed when hearing the news and wish Ryan the fastest and best possible recovery. Ryan’s personality and riding style will be missed by the entire team.

On a more positive note, Sean McClendon, better known as Griz will be joining the team to fill Ryan’s position for the remaining events in the 2009 season. Griz is a public figure in mountain biking and has been racing since Papa Bush. We feel his positive energy and dedication to his racing will help keep team moral up and results coming.


Griz is one of the most Patriotic American Citizens we have ever met so when the chance came to ride an American Made bicycle it didn’t take long to get the thumbs up. He will be riding both the Intense M6 Evo and the new 951. The remaining events this season include the last 3 would cup rounds, Crankworx, and some other select North American events.

Thanks again to all the sponsors for their continued support, and keep checking out the web videos from the X-Fusion/ Intense Team’s adventures and rides.
