It’s no secret that Pale Ale is Paul from Paul Component Engineering’s favorite beer, and this will be our 4th year collaborating on a custom bike for Sierra Nevada Brewery to show off at Sea Otter and give away to a lucky winner. This year we decided to raise the bar by building up TWO bikes, and using them to help out two of our favorite trail stewardship!
The latest video from Topo Designs features Johnny at Brave New Wheel with an instructional video on how to wrap handlebars using Campandgoslow’s Diamondback bar tape.
Ain’t it a perdy thing when yer pals get together to create beautiful products? Camp and Go Slow‘s western diamondback (Crotalus atrox) and eastern diamondback (Crotalus adamanteus) skin bar tape pattern has made its way onto the trim of some of Swift Industries‘ most iconic bags, alongside a collaboration patch. These will be available tomorrow at noon, PST but you can check out the full drop below right now…
Today’s Readers’ Rides features Casey from Campandgoslow‘s Crust Evasion with words by Casey and photos by Sarah Lillegard…
The Great Basin region of the western US stretches from the Sierra Nevada mountains to the Wasatch range, and from the Columbia Plateau all the way down to the Mojave Desert. This expansive, high elevation desert has a nickname, the Sagebrush Sea, and I live right on the beach. I’m tucked away in a rural area at the northern end of the Eastern Sierra.
Sometimes the best bikes for camping are the ones you’ve got or ones that are gifted to you. Although this bike is the latter, many people right now are clamoring to source a bike, partially brought on by the pandemic, a rekindled love for cycling, and scarcity of bikes. There may be a rad bike in your future and you don’t even know it yet. It might just be the one if your basement, parents garage or a craigslist ad. An 80s MTB seems to make the perfect donor bike to get out, explore more, and connect with nature.
Our friends at Campandgoslow have just launched a new olive, wool jersey pre-order at their website. These jerseys are inspired by classic wool kits from cycling’s iconic past and will keep you warm in the coming winter months. The window to order will close on September 5th at noon PST, or when CGS reaches its cap of 85 pieces, whichever comes first so if you’re interested in these, don’t miss out.
We expect to be shipping these to you in late October. Keep in mind that production time will depend on our total order quantity, and shipping times are a little unpredictable these days. We’ll do everything we can to get your jersey to you as soon as possible.
Pre-order one at Campandgoslow.

This build was made possible by Sincere Cycles. Bailey took Slade‘s idea and made it a reality. From a rolling chassis of frame, fork, and wheels, came this complete bike which has got to be one of the most clever builds I’ve documented this year. Slade’s an energetic soul who jumped right into the world of bikepacking with this Chumba Ursa…
