You may be familiar with Cole Bernier s name from Remy Metailler s recent video at Big White Bike Park. In it, Metailler chases Bernier down some of the bike park s gnarliest black diamond tech and jump trails at serious speed. We were curious about Bernier s three-wheeled adaptive mountain bike, so we decided to do a full bike check on it.
The company that makes the bike that Bernier rides is called Bowhead, which is based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The founder of the company, Christian Bagg, was injured in 1996 while snowboarding and paralyzed from the waist down. He starting inventing his way around the challenges he faced and building adaptive equipment. What started as a way to solve his own problems grew into a company that allows others experience the outdoors.
