The Radavist

With thru axles an industry standard and most thread pitches have been established, Wolf Tooth felt it was time to throw their hat into the ring of axles but they added their own design twist.

“Knowing the pain of damaging their prized frames, they added end caps that would take the brunt of rock scrapes and crashes. And because to look good is to feel good, they decided to offer Axle Caps in eight anodized colors. Caps thread into a dedicated recess in the axle head and are easily replaceable or swappable with an 8mm hex key.

Because cold weather and short days are never far from a Minnesotan’s mind, they also created Trainer Caps to reduce barriers to winter workouts. Non-drive side Axle Caps are joined by drive-side plugs that can be installed or removed with ease to make the prospect of hopping on the trainer a little more bearable.”

Jay Ritchey’s bag company, Bags by Bird, launched earlier this month with the Goldback saddle pack, a modern spin on a classic bag design. BXB just announced their new Teardrop Handlebar Bag, designed for dirt drops, or other handlebars with flare. The bag’s unique profile allows for maximum portage storage with drops, keeping to a tapered design. Naturally, it won’t fit on all drops, so check out the dimensions at Bags by Bird before ordering!

Our friends at Swift Industries worked with Dirt Rag Magazine on a giveaway for one of their Elwha Hip Packs. The contest is easy, so head to Dirt Rag to find out more!

Wool socks are a cycling apparel staple. Wear them year round and they’ll wick sweat in the summer and provide warmth in the winter. We love DeFeet’s wool socks because they blend nylon and polyester in their wool for increased durability and lifespan. We’ve got two color options this year, inspired by one of our favorite minerals found in the American West, green Jasper and red Jasper.

Each sock has our jackal on the side and the Radavist script logo on the foot. Made in the USA by DeFeet and in stock now at the Radavist Web Shop. We also restocked the long sleeve t-shirts in all sizes. We also have new 1″ Jackal lapel pins in stock too!

Please note: we will try our hardest to get these socks to you before Christmas, but there is no way to guarantee delivery before December 25th. Thanks for understanding!

This has been in the works for a while. Paul Component Engineering likes to make the best possible product they can when a new item hits their catalog. The team wanted to make the toughest, most precisely machined, most adjustable dropper trigger on the market.

Machined by Paul Component Engineering in Chico California to the highest tolerances. These are in stock in three finishes, black, silver, or polished, and are in stock now at Paul Component Engineering.

Polartec’s fabrics are amazing. If you own a jacket you too can attest to its durability, breathability, stretchability, and its ability to keep you dry. For these reasons, Ornot looked to Polartec’s newest Neoshell fabric to be used in their new Magic Shell jacket. Head over to Ornot to see more!

Bags by Bird is a side project of Jay from JayBird films. If that name sounds familiar, it’s because Jay makes beautiful videos, most notably El Silencio, a project with Tumbleweed Bikes. On these intense bikepacking trips, Jay was testing out his prototype bag, and working on launching his company, Bags by Bird, or BXB for short. His flagship bag is the Goldback, available in a variety of sizing and material options and made one at a time by Jay. See the Goldback bags at Bags by Bird.

Winter is here and with it, cold and wet rides. Swift Industries teamed up with Randi Jo on a series of wool flip up caps.

We’ve been wanting to do a MTB jersey for a while but couldn’t find one that we liked in terms of the cut or material. Then we found Voler, or rather Voler found us. Using our Disruptive Coloration patterns, we made these dirt jerseys for men and women from our green or black pattern. They’re quick drying and wicking. The best part about this material is it’ll keep the sun off your arms in the summer and it’s lightweight enough to wear even in warmer months. The fit is less boxy, less baggy, more streamlined and less likely to flap in the wind or get snagged in your pack. If you like your jerseys bigger and baggier, we suggest ordering a size up. Note: getting our ENDO jerseys to match the Voler jerseys and vice versa was hard, while the tones are the same, the Voler jerseys came out a little lighter… They’re $75, with men’s and women’s sizes in each color, and in stock now.

We also re-upped some sizes in the Long Sleeve Winter Tee, added some Point Socks, sticker packs, and RUNE Stem Caps.

Head to our web shop to pick one up!

Oveja Negra’s Hip Packs feature a roll top construction, made from lightweight XPac and while the standard colors sold out super quick, there are a few of these in “Wack Pack” colors. What is Wack Pack? Wack Packs are constructed out of random colored fabrics and materials. They’re guaranteed to be one of a kind and are tastefully mixed and sewn from scraps and miss-matched cuts. Although scrappy, all Wack Pack’s are made from first quality fabric and materials.
