The Crux 5 is THE bike to have.

Three more Crux’s just rolled out the shop door, each one ready for a different kind of adventure.

—Tommy took home the S-Works and will be riding epic adventures in Colorado with it.

—Nate went with the Expert, upgraded with ENVE wheels, and is taking it to Gravel Nationals!

—Lucas took home the Comp with SRAM Rival XPLR. He’ll be upping his gravel and road riding this season. Watch out he’s fast.

That’s the beauty of the Crux—it doesn’t disappoint. Race it. Explore on it. Ride it wherever the road or gravel takes you.

Fast, light, capable, and just a seriously sweet bike.

Ready for a Crux of your own? Come talk bikes with Michael at LITW. 🌲

The NEW Scott Spark DC is HERE! And we couldn’t be more excited for it.

Michael got the chance to personally test ride the new Spark DC a few weeks ago in Utah, and he absolutely loved it. Fast, capable, playful, and ready to take on just about anything.

If you’re ready for adventure, ready for fun, ready to GET LOST—the new Spark DC might just be your bike.

This was a fun one!

Sander, a pilot from Netherlands asked if we could get him a Crux 5 S-Level in Deep Marine Metallic.

A few weeks later, Sander flew in, picked up his new bike, and took it out that same night for a ride with The Cycling Club — even hanging in there with their fast group!

He’s now back in the Netherlands and loving every adventure on his Crux. The first photo was taken out in the dunes.

This is what Sander had to say about his bike:
“This bike with these new 2.2 tires is the best, fastest, and most comfortable bike I’ve ever ridden off-road. Super happy with it.”

We love the stories behind the bikes. And love knowing Sander is out there GETTING LOST in the Netherlands.🌲

Last night was incredibly special! 💚 When a community comes together to support something meaningful, it’s truly magical.

Together, we raised over $2,500 for cancer research — just WOW!

If you missed the event and still want to donate, we’ll be accepting donations through 10/3. All donations will be split between COMBO, Gators MTB, People Who Like Wendel, and LITW.
