Jakob Blach racing cyclocross
Jakob Blach

I ride it.
I race it.
I shoot it.

I'm Jakob Blach, a cyclocross and gravel racer from Gothenburg. This is my application to ride Factor for Gaard of Bikes in 2027. I race the Nordic calendar and film it myself, so the shop gets the rider and the content from one person.

Aiming for SM in cyclocross and gravel.

I race both, and I'm competitive in my age category. The Swedish championships are my main target for 2027. Between races I ride road all season, so road rides and group rides are covered too.

Edits people watch twice.

I cut short, stylised edits to the beat of the music. Windsurf pros and bike shops work with me for them, and riders share them because they're in them. Tap a clip to see how each one was made.

I've filmed from Crete to Copenhagen.

These are some of the places I've lived and worked, from the US east coast to southern Europe. I'm based in Gothenburg, and I'll ride and shoot wherever your riders are.

Pro windsurfers book me for their edits.

Some of the clients I've worked with, from the Freestyle Pro Tour to Cykelfiket and Karlssons Cykel. Tap a name to see the work.

Every start line is a shoot.

I'm planning nine race weekends in 2027, across the Nordics plus a UCI Gravel Worlds qualifier in Austria. I'll race a Factor at every one of them and film it.

What Gaard of Bikes gets.

Content from every race weekend, a regular at your group rides with a camera, and edits of your own riders. I'm already known in the Gothenburg scene, so the bike gets seen.

What I'll deliver in 2027.

A fixed rhythm the shop can plan around, from the day the bike arrives.

Riders share what they're in.

When your riders are in an edit, they share it and tag the shop and the bike. Their friends see it, and most of them ride too.

Put me on a Factor.

I'll bring the race days, the footage and the group rides.
