Twelve Days of Breathtaking Builds: Day 3 - Dario's Duende Legacy
On the heels of a sweet OPEN, Day three shows off a bike much more at home on the blacktop. The Piazza paint scheme on this Duende was one of the two last paint schemes that Dario designed so we didn’t have enough time to build this in a lot...

Twelve Days of Breathtaking Builds: Day 2 - An AC Classic with a Twist
If we had a factory team right now, this could very well be our Works adventure race bike. Painted in Above Category black, white and blue and featuring as much componentry from our friends in Chicago and Indianapolis as is possible this bike is decked out with a SRAM Red...

Twelve Days of Breathtaking Builds Day 1 - A Passionate Pink GT-1
Starting out this year's Twelve, we have a not-so-standard GT-1 from Mosaic. The raw titanium finish accented prominently with the black powder-coated logos and matching headbadge.

Bike of the Week: A Multi-Purpose Mosaic
One bike to rule them all. A quiver killer, as they say. The ever coveted dream bike that can do so many things you wonder why you needed the six different ones currently sitting in your garage. Does such a bike really exist? It's a balance that can be much...

Bike of the Week: Piazza Peg
Everyone in a while, you need to go back to your roots. Things evolve, tastes change, people grow, but you can never forget where you came from. Don't get us wrong–We love, disc brakes, we love gravel bikes, we love tubeless tires, and we love electronic shifting, but with this...

Bike of the Week: BRG Orbis!!!
For as long as hand built titanium bicycles have been around they've been referenced as a "forever bike," thanks to the material's nearly nonexistent fatigue rate, corrosion resistance, fantastic ride quality, and if we're being frank, the monetary investment often associated with them.

Bike of the Week: Chad's Corretto Check-In
The idea of a review just sounds terrible. The thought of saying something we sell is bad, insert air quotes here, doesn't appease us. Although when we speak about the intricacies of Baum not to mention the quality of their product it's hard to have anything negative to say. Baum's...
