6am, Sunday morning.  The city sleeps, but you’re awake dreaming of winning the bunch sprint 1km from the café.  “Click.  Click.”  The first climb of the day looms.  Protesting leg muscles battle with heaving lungs, contrasting with the silent break of daylight kissing the mist which hangs over the horizon.  On Monday, you’ll be another citizen of the world.  But right now, lycra is your Superman cape. We know, because we ride.

Surly Pacer in stock now Print E-mail

ImageImageBehold the Pacer, now also available as a complete bike.  For years we sold it only as a frameset.  It was understated, didn't draw a lot of attention to itself, but it rode great and people who rode one loved it. 

The Pacer is not what most race-inspired roadies seem to drool over. It isn’t on the cutting edge of design, it isn't made of the latest ultra light super-expensive materials, and it isn't festooned with lots of bright colors and graphics.  Rather, it is a road bike made of our favorite material, cro-moly steel, using frame geometry that makes it fast and efficient like a road bike should be, but it is not a racing bike.  This is a frame meant for all day rides.  There are a lot of other road frames out there that are flashier, more exotic, and full of promises most riders only dream of fulfilling.  The Pacer doesn't make promises.  It's simply a great riding steel frame.

New Salsa Cork tape Print E-mail

ImageImageSalsa Cork Tape - Eleven different colors of plush gel cork with embossed Salsa logos.

Feels so good and wraps so smooth. Amazingly stretchy and resilient for ease of wrapping. Mild adhesive on the back so it stays put, yet doesn't gum up and tear if you need to fine-tune your taping. No annoying peel-off backing to get in your way.

Add some Salsa style! • Rasta, yellow, orange, red, blue, black, grey, white, dark brown, natural leather look, and pastel pink.

 

Chuan says: "This is possibly the nicest bar tape I've used. Not heavy, not the absolute lightest, but really forgiving to apply, especially if (like me) you sometimes need a couple of tries to perfectly nail the criss-cross wrap at the brake lever."

Ritchey bar tape with Allen key plugs Print E-mail
