My initial reaction when I crossed the finish line at the inaugural BWR BC race was “That was HARD!”. Sure, I finished the 136.6 mile race with 12,117 feet of climbing in a total time of 9 hours and 13 minutes, but none of it was easy and all of it was earned. The best […]
Back in 2019, Mountain Bike Action reviewed our first hardtail mountain bike- the Flow Motion. The conversation in the beginning was something along the lines of: “Hardtail? Yeah, we have some FS bikes we want to ride but we will give your bike a shot.” Not exactly confidence inspiring, but at least they were willing […]
Usually we strive to get photography done and posted for each custom bike we do with the expectation that we will showcase the bike both in social media and advertising as the bike is being delivered to the customer. However, there are those times where we get a little busy and things don’t always line […]
For the 2020 Chris King Handbuilt show, the color choices were either Gold or a Two Tone Black/ Gold. The Gold was going to be polished and the Two Tone Black/ Gold was going to be a matte finish. Both colors were gorgeous in their own rights, but once we saw the shine of the […]
VitalMTB is a very respected online publication specifically focused on mountain bikes. They live and breathe MTB’s all day every day. It would then be fair to say that they have a strong opinion of what works and what does not work in the current world of MTB’s. Knowing that they have knowledge base to […]
The Gulf Racing Livery is easily one of the most recognizable racing liveries in all of motorsports. It has been adorning race cars since the late 1960’s when it won back to back LeMans race events on the backs of Ford GT40 race cars. It is such an iconic design that it continues to be […]
The Storm King GP came about due to the evolution in Gravel Racing and Gravel Riding. As riders continue to push the boundaries of their bikes further and further, it was only a matter of time before the components that would go on their frames would evolve as well. With the creation of the new […]
It has been almost 2 years since we last attended a bike show in person, and what a long strange trip it has been. While we have missed seeing our friends within the industry, we have stayed busy with our customer base exploring new custom finish designs and continuing to improve the products we deliver […]
Colors are used to represent many things. Not just things that would fit their description (such as the “green grass” or the “blue sky”), but ideas and concepts that take on greater meaning and represent something bigger than just the color itself. It’s a way for people to identify with something and it can bring […]
When the opportunity came up that we could send a bike to Cycling Weekly for a review, we jumped at the chance. We knew we wanted to send something special and what better than to send one of our all new 2021 Barlow bikes with a Cerakote finish to add that extra bit of bling. […]
When the conversations with Bikepacking.com started up about reviewing a Storm King, the topic turned to “How can we push this bike really hard?”. The intrepid author, Jess Daddio, asked if she could test the bike for 1000 miles. That would give her a solid basis to write her review on. We said “ABSOLUTELY!” and […]
