​​Mike Hampton
With Öhlins since 2019 
Years in the industry: 21 
Specialty: Automotive, MTB 

Mike is like a “Swiss Army Knife” when it comes to suspension.  While he specializes in our Automotive segment, he began as a technician for MTB and helps with Motorcycle. Mike raced amateur motocross for eight years and made it to B level. 
Mike is a serious “gear head” and when he is not working at Öhlins, he can be found working in his shop, riding dirt bikes, 4-wheelers, SxS’s, trucks, cars, and really anything that has wheels.  When it comes to fixing up those big boy toys for racing, if Mike is involved, they will be modified, tuned up, and ready to Race! 
 

Chris Regec
With Öhlins since 2019 
Years in the industry: 16 
Specialty: MTB 

Chris is the MTB Service Technician here at Öhlins USA.  As the only dedicated MTB technician, he has done almost all the bike service that has come through the door since he started here in 2019.  We usually find him with oily hands, but he also takes the time to answer tech-related emails and phone calls. 
Chris has worked in retail and manufacturing in the bike industry since 2006.  Most of his time was spent with a wrench in hand and there is not much he doesn’t know about MTBs.  
In his spare time, you can find him outdoors, usually riding bikes, fishing, and hanging out with his family.
