I’m Chad Barentsen (current elite level cyclist, adventurer, and artist) out of Castle Rock, Colorado. I’m reaching out because I’m psyched on Momentous. I’ve used and currently use just about all your products depending on what the season holds. I’ve trained, raced and bike-packed using your products and I hate to say “love” but I’m fully in love with Momentous.

I’ll keep it brief because obviously designing awesome products takes time. I’ve spent the last 3 years gaining back traction in the cycling community with training, heading group rides, route mapping, and ultimately getting back to my racing routes. Over the last two years I’ve seen amazing growth in myself, as an athlete, and as a father to become more physically and mentally strong. Majority of my time is dedicated to fitness and upholding my current racing standards. In the last two years I’ve watched myself advance from 30th-12th in the pro field at Pikes Peak Apex, 14th -2nd overall at The Breck Epic (These races included so many “heavy hitters”). I’ve won countless statewide races (Epic Rides, Zia Rides, GroRaces, Adventure fit, Mavsports) and local races (Rattler Race Series, HR MTB Race Series) and I’m looking forward to a new challenge. Getting straight to the point I want to be the National Ultra Endurance Series 50 miler Champion, Win XC, SS National Champion Jerseys, sub 6:45 The Leadville 100 and finish top 10 in Pro field at the Pikes Peak Apex.
