If you've been missing the chance to see some of the bicycle world's finest builders display their work, mark your calendars for late summer 2023. That's when the MADE Bicycle Show debuts, bringing together many of the best-known frame builders, plenty of new and smaller builders, and a curated collection of component brands to an outdoor show in Portland, Oregon. In this interview I talk with MADE's co-founder Billy Sinkford about the event, how it'll differ from long-time fan faves like NAHBS and Philly Bike Expo, and what we can expect as both attending media and consumers. If you've been thinking about ordering a custom bike start saving up now and plan on being there to meet them all and find the builder that you connect with. WANT MORE?

NAHBS is right around the corner, and if you are betting on who's going to win awards, Rob English is the closest you'll get to a sure thing. He's a highly trained mechanical engineer (Master's Degree from Cambridge) and a very respected member of the framebuilding community. Yet, unlike many of his compatriates focused on modern steel bikes with classic design appeal, Rob's bikes are incredibly advanced and innovative. This approach got us wondering about the ideas behind these designs and we just had to learn more. So we visited Rob at his home workshop in Eugene, Oregon for this special episode of SRAMcast. In our interview with Rob, we take a deep tech dive into his building methods and philosophy. This episode is for all the custom framebuilding nerds and fans of technology out there.
The duo makes a strong return to podcasting, hosting Carl Strong of Pursuit Cycles. They discuss the industry veteran's new venture into small batch carbon production, the ethos of his business, NAHBS and much more. Tune in! Like, comment, share!

You'd think eating is easy. We've all been doing it longer than we can remember. But eating on the bike while pedaling hard enough to make people miss the couch isn't easy. If it was, we wouldn't be getting listeners asking about how best to execute so they don't bonk....

Get on your way to making IM OH 70.3 amazing!In this episode we talk about the drama in the pro peloton as the season opens with a few stage races and some of the spring classics already under way. Cav has seen quite a few instances of bad luck, from hitting a bollard and the back end of a neutral service car. The Cycling Tips Secret Pro article had a few good points in it lately, and continues to be something that is worth our time. They bring up the excellent point, asking why pro cyclists don't have a permanent number akin to other ball sports elsewhere in the world. The article also shows the peloton's disapproval for Froome continuing to race, and another describes the additional drama coming to Team Sky. Finally we talk about the awesome bikes at the North American Handmade Bicycle show, some awesome galleries both here and here. To give you, the listener some, albeit a small amount, of actionable content we discussed what spares we keep in the house and in the car when the weather brakes and we're out riding more. Here's a link the the GCN video that inspired that discussion.

His assault on public lands, privatization of said public spaces and actively embracing the idea of transferring America's public lands to the state. Good one, Mate! Listener Questions! Chris from Sitka says– Hey guys! Love the show and all the awesome reviews you guys post! I’m looking at building a summer set of wheels for my 2016 Trek Farley 7 and my head is about to burst trying to decide which route to go. So many options these days! Basically i am torn between 29+ width x 3″ (chupacabra) and a 27.5 x 3.8″ ( Maxxis FBF/FBR). The wheels are carbon and laced to DT 350’s and the price is within $100 so that’s not an issue. I find the BB on the low side already on the Farley and think the 29+ would bring it up a bit more for summer riding. My winter setup is 26″ Mulefut with Barbagezis or D5s depending on conditions. Thanks for the wonderful words of wisdom! Koookarootz!!!! Chris Anderson James Comments: I’d like to see a story addressing why so few manufacturers put rear-rack bosses on their bikes. I can’t be the only human on the planet who wants to commute with a fat bike and carry stuff using the same panniers I use on my road bike. Seems like well over 90% of the fat bikes are missing the very simple feature. Those seat post racks are awful and that Thule seat stay rack is $100! We got a shout out to Chris Daisy from another Chris who Comments: Really like your podcast. What is the name of the song and artist for episode #115 opening segment? Chris, that one was called Fat Rasta and our musical director, Mr Chris Daisy from Zion Cyclery whipped up that little diddy for us!

December 18, 2013 Chainring setup and selection has become a HOT topic in the world of mountain biking. Mountain Bike Radio got wind of Wolf Tooth Components back in February 2013 at NAHBS in Denver and has been following how things have unfolded. We were lucky to track down a very busy owner of the relatively new company! Brendan Moore of Wolf Tooth Components joined Ben to discuss the company, the chainrings, what they have going on, and even hints at a lot more coming from them. You even get a sneak peak of the crazy fatbike ride one of the other owners is doing soon. Listen in to hear more about the chainring options that Wolf Tooth Components gives you.
