Excellence in Design from @chromagbikes

Super stoked to get my hands on this Chromag seatpost quick release
for my trail bike.

A single bolt seatpost clamp is simple and light, but still requires a
tool to drop the seat. Most quick releases use aluminum on aluminum
which is crunchy and wears quickly. Adding a plastic shims fixes this
temporarily but still falls apart. Dropping brass in there fixes both
problems.

This thing is CNC machined with a great feel that tops the Salsa flip
lock that people love so much.

Plus they nailed it on the packaging. Slick looking.

Yout trail bike is naked without this thing.

Back to School

Locking myself into school this fall. Relieved. Scared. Stoked. Jumping off cliffs on skis is easier then this. Michael Cody - (802) 578-2030

A Little MTB Ride Time

I had a little opportunity to road trip and work remotely last week so
I decided to hit up some meccas of mountain biking out west.

Started in Durango for three days of chilling, working, and riding the
Horse Gulch trails in near perfect conditions. When the snow hit the
next morning I drove out to Moab for two days to ride Slickrock and
Porcupine rim with some friends. Then finished it off with the Panache
Cyclewear crew in Fruita on the Kokopelli trails and in Grand Junction
on the Lunch Loops.

Now tired. Smiling. Happy.
