The Pro’s Closet TPC is Back

With its assets just auctioned off in October, TPC is back under new ownership with the message:

“We took a bit of a spill, but TPC is back on track to being the destination for selling and buying pre-owned bikes. It will be a bit before we have bikes for sale, but our doors are open for sellers. If you have something to sell, please visit our Sell/Trade page and submit any bikes, frames, or wheels.”

Elshair Companies, a private investment firm, bought The Pro’s Closet (TPC) brand and its intellectual property and has hired former employees to lead them into the next stage of the online used bike selling platform.

We’ll update this post as events warrant.

Like a repair kit, a packable, just-in-case layer is something we always throw on the bike before setting off, but like many things bike-related, we felt we needed to tweak the standard to achieve our ideal iteration. In collaboration with California-based cycling apparel manufacturer, Voler, our new Feldspar Ride Jacket ($119.99) hits the mark. This super breathable, minimal, USA-made layer packs up to burrito size and provides the sweet spot in protection for most three-season riding. After thorough testing and design back-and-forth with Voler, the unisex Feldspar jacket is finally on our digital shelves, ready to ship to you today IRL. Let’s take a long exposure look at them below…

World of Bikes: Gravel Hall of Fame

Today, coinciding with another episode of The Pro’s Closet’s World of Bikes series, we offer up an article Daniel Wakefield Pasley wrote to the head of the gravel (evil) empire, aka the overlords in control of the Gravel Hall of Fame, nominating skateboarding. Daniel has had more to do with the popularity of gravel than you might think and so let’s hear him out below. Please note, take this stuff with a grain (gravel) of (gravel) salt. It’s all in good fun!
