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 them 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. If you have questions, please contact us.

Nope, we aren’t having a Black Friday sale. Making Nope, we aren’t having a Black Friday sale. Making everything ourselves, the hard way, in the U.S., means we don’t make giant margins we can chop in half for the sake of a trendy capitalist holiday. We charge what we have to, to pay our staff, keep the lights on, keep our old Toyotas running, and bring our aid station up to the mountains 3 times a year. We know our parts aren’t cheap, but they’re meant to be reliable, serviceable, and last a lifetime. I mean, sure, we DO want you to buy our parts, but not because you’re bored, or want some kind of brand identity status, or just because it’s the biggest shopping day of the year. We want you to buy our parts when you can afford it, and you’ve been riding your bike enough that you think it just might finally be time to invest in some components that you can rely on, service, and move from bike to bike. We’ll be here when you’re ready. But in the meantime, let’s delete our shopping cart and get out for a long ride on a nice day like this! ✌️
Should we bring back #FixtureFriday? This modular Should we bring back #FixtureFriday? This modular desk mount fixture was 3D printed to hold our BËPs during assembly. It uses an extra short version of our Quick Release to clamp 4 BËPs at a time while we slide the o-ring onto the wedges and tighten on the caps. I know, a lot of fuss for a simple bar end plug, but that’s just how we do it around here, because BIKE NERDS.
Applications for the next round of BIPOC Bike Adve Applications for the next round of BIPOC Bike Adventure Grants are now open – providing free bikepacking gear, cash, and mentorship for community initiatives. “The BIPOC Bike Adventure Program is an effort to reduce the barriers to bike adventure for BIPOC people. We recognize that this is a small step in the face of systemic racism and entrenched inequality, but we believe that bicycles and the outdoors are for all, and that everyone should have access to the freedom, joy and self-actualization they provide. We also know that there are many barriers to multi-day self-supported adventures to be dismantled before beginning to bikepack, such as finances, equipment, confidence, experience, camping skills, and access to routes.“ Head over to the link in bio at @bikepackingroots to learn how you can take advantage of (or support!) these programs.

Did you know that Chico’s annual Bidwell Bump moun Did you know that Chico’s annual Bidwell Bump mountain bike race predates the first Repack?! It’s a beautiful rugged loop with a creek crossing in Upper Park, and registration is still open for this year’s October 5th running. Head over to @bikereg and type in Bidwell Bump to get in on this historic race, and all proceeds go to Velo Trail Works. Also, if you want to read a hilarious recounting of the first race in 1976 by local legend Chuck Bodfish (keep in mind, mountain bikes weren’t really invented yet), head over to the PAUL Comp website and type “Bidwell Bump” into the search bar. 🎨: @dbstattoo_sf
