Behind the scenes with Pro Enduro Rider Jesse Melamed

We travel with the reigning Champ during a rollercoaster start to the Enduro year.

The UCI Mountain Bike Enduro World Cup roared into life back in March with the opening couple of rounds taking place in Tasmania. Both Maydena Bike Park and Blue Derby brought with them two very different flavours and as a result showcased the kind of breadth of ability required to cut it at the top of the fastest growing Gravity format. 

Jesse Melamed won the Enduro World Series overall title last season then promptly went and made some more headlines with an off-season move to Canyon CLLCTV from Rocky Mountain RaceFace. We joined Jesse on the road to experience first hand what goes into competing at the highest level:


It may not have been his dream start to the season but Melamed is right in the hunt for the UCI Mountain Bike Enduro World Cup crown. Can he solidify things with a good result at the next round in Italy at one of the sport’s most imposing battlegrounds; Finale Outdoor Region in Italy? 

Don’t forget that you can catch all the action from the UCI Mountain Bike Enduro and E-Enduro World Cup’s from the Finale Outdoor Region on Discovery+, Eurosport and GCN+ 02-04 June.
