Shop-themed top caps are where it’s at! iMinusD just got a batch of their iD Top Caps in the mail and they’re looking great. Perfect way to top off your Chris King or Cane Creek. Check them out here, at the iMinusD online shop.

Last week Tony got his Milwaukee Package in the mail and today mine arrived. A lot of great parts to go towards the new MKE 700cmx [not the official name of the bike]. Thomson bits, Chris King headset, toeclips!! [dimension clips are great btw], Twisted PCs, a new helmet [slick!] and some new Sugino 75s.

I can’t wait to build up this bike. Should be here soon enough. Well, not soon enough, but hopefully next week?

Custom bikes aren’t always about the bling; they’re about designing form for specific functions. For Dylan, his love of touring through the Australian outback pushed him to get a custom Meriwether Cycles longtail fat bike for touring. Read on for a dusty Readers’ Rides…

The original Switchgrade tilt-adjust saddle clamp from Canadian manufacturer, Aenomaly Constructs offered nose-up, nose-down, and nose-neutral settings. But when Travis first rode it, he found the angles a couple degrees too extreme for his terrain. So today, he’s excited to share his review of the new two-position Switchgrade Duo, along with some of his signature soapboxing on saddle settings.

Chris King is raffling off this stunning Caletti to support outreach by both Silver Stallion and Warpaint, to Indigenous youth.  Caletti Cycles, Black Magic Paint, SRAM, ENVE, and Schwalbe have all very graciously contributed to this project, and the raffle is being run by the good people at Warpaint.

Camera Corner will have its world premiere at the MADE Bike Show Movie Night on Friday, August 23rd. It will screen at 8 PM at the Zidell Yards in Portland, Oregon, and your entry to the film is free if you have a MADE ticket for Friday. Otherwise, it’s $10. Yakima is sponsoring the movie night and We Are One is buying the first 400 beers for the evening events. Do not miss out!

We recommend buying your tickets ahead of time as this show will sell out and there are no guarantees you’ll be able to get in the night of. You can buy tickets at MADE.

Alex Bethge breaks down the inspiration behind his new custom Cicli Bonanno Futomaki Disc. With bold lines and an eye toward sustainability, he commissioned a bike meant to last and withstand the ever-changing tides of the bike industry.

We’ve ridden a handful of Fusion Fiber wheels, and we always wonder when this unique approach to carbon fiber might make the leap to other components. Well, we can keep on wondering, but the prototype handlebar that Forge+Bond sent to Travis last month has us thinking about the future.
