Stan is BikeRadar’s content editor. Stan works on everything from content strategy and breaking news to evergreen updates and long-form features. Stan started working in the bike industry in 2018, writing content for some of the sport’s biggest brands, before moving to BikeRadar in 2020. With a degree in design history and a master’s in writing, he has worked as a freelance writer and journalist for the past nine years, writing reviews, essays and interviews for many art, design and literature publications, as well as appearing on radio. A road cyclist at heart, Stan has undertaken foolhardy pursuits such as 300km overnight audaxes, and you’ll likely find him cycling through Essex from his home in East London.
I’ve only had my Portola for a little while, but so far I am impressed especially for a budget bike.
