Product Story

Small front or rear racks can mount to these posts for a strong connection and integrated appearance.

Rack Adapters replace the brake bolts that thread into the center of our brake pivots. The threaded posts that extend from these have 5mm threads and include a nylock nut. Installation and spring adjustment is the same as with the original brake pivot hardware, except that a 14mm wrench is used in place of a 5mm hex wrench for tightening the pivot.

Please note that our Rack Adapters are not compatible with the center mount version of our Racer or Racer Medium brakes. These adapters may also work with other brake brands that have a counter-bored screw head for the pivot mounting screw, but we cannot guarantee it.

Brass bike parts… they’re heavier and cost more… b Brass bike parts… they’re heavier and cost more… but there’s something about ✨THAT PATINA✨. We know, these aren’t for everyone. But some people like a little pop of brass on a bike. You can polish it to shine like jewelry, or let it oxidize, for that vintage steampunk vibe. We’ve just added brass options to our Bar End Plugs and Stem Topcaps, and have already been offering it in Spring Adjusters and Baby Groovy Barrel Adjusters for a while now. Machined right here in Chico California by a bunch of bike nerds, just like everything else we make. ✌️
@ron_kingcage himself came by to deliver and insta @ron_kingcage himself came by to deliver and install a pair of custom stamped, high polished Iris cages for the #CascadeCouger.

Our friends @spurcycle just stopped by our booth t Our friends @spurcycle just stopped by our booth to install this sweet hand polished dinger 🔔 onto the #CascadeCougar. This bike just gets shinier and shinier! 🤩
We didn’t say the #CascadeCougar would be a “re-cr We didn’t say the #CascadeCougar would be a “re-creation” of Mr Paul’s old Salsa, we said it would be INSPIRED by it, and @blackcatbicycles was definitely inspired! This painstaking geometrically masked rainbow fade with chrome lettering was finished with a clearcoat and well, just WAIT until you see this thing dipped in polished parts! ✨🤩✨As for the last pic… we’ll take bad photoshop over A.I. any day of the week. 😂 Thanks for the photos @mybucketsgottaholeinit 📷
Our friends at @wolf_tooth_comp sweetened the pot Our friends at @wolf_tooth_comp sweetened the pot by sending over a pair of sweet Waveform pedals for the #CascadeCougar Oakridge Trails fundraiser project. These puppies come in two sizes, 9 different colors, and are 100% user serviceable. The question is… will we really have this bike built in time for the @made.bike show this weekend?!
