10,000-mile update on my Basso SV—and somehow, I love this bike more with every mile I ride it. 🇮🇹❤️

It’s confidence-inspiring when the road gets fast, explosive when it’s time to accelerate, dependable through mile after mile, and still one of the most beautiful bikes I’ve ever owned. The SV has that rare combination of speed, precision and soul that turns an incredible machine into something truly special.

This isn’t simply a bike I admire—it’s a bike I trust. An Italian dream that keeps getting better with time.

You really need to experience it.

This isn’t an update. It’s a warning shot. 🔥

The all-new Cervélo S5 has arrived—and the bike that already defined aerodynamic speed just moved the finish line again. It’s 6.3 watts faster, 124 grams lighter and sharper than ever, with deeper fork legs, a reshaped head tube and an incredible new one-piece cockpit designed to cut through the wind.

Cervélo and Reserve even developed the new 57|64 Turbulent Aero wheels as part of the S5 system, creating a complete speed machine built to dominate sprints, breakaways and every town-line challenge in between.

The silhouette is unmistakable. The engineering is relentless. The speed is almost unfair.

The king of aero bikes didn’t come back to compete. It came back to take over. 👑💨

Some bikes perform beautifully. Some bikes look beautiful. Finding one that does both—and feels completely right—is the real challenge.

Tarin’s search for the perfect gravel bike was a long and thoughtful one. She wanted cutting-edge technology, race-ready performance, and real capability beyond the pavement, but it also had to match her impeccable sense of style.

The Cannondale SuperX brings it all together: fast, refined, confident, and absolutely stunning. From its elegant finish and perfectly considered details to its lightweight speed and gravel-racing pedigree, this is a bike that looks every bit as exceptional as it rides.

Congratulations, Tarin. The search was worth it—this SuperX couldn’t be a more perfect match.

Trail riding rewards you in ways that are hard to describe until you experience them. 🙌

The light is lower, the colors are starting to turn, and views like this one feel like they were made for this time of year. If you've been thinking about getting into mountain biking, September is genuinely one of the best months to start. 😎

Fast enough to race. Comfortable enough to ride all day. And gold enough to make every bike look like a million bucks. ✨

The BERD Sparrow 50 Gold carbon wheels pair deep, aerodynamic 50mm rims with BERD’s incredibly light spokes for serious speed without beating you up when the gravel gets rough. Their generous 30mm internal rim width gives modern gravel tires a wider, more supportive profile—adding stability, grip and comfort while letting you run lower pressures with confidence.

BERD calls them the fastest gravel wheels it has ever tested. Maximum speed, surprising comfort and absolutely impossible to ignore.

🔥 BIKE OF THE DAY — NOW OUR BROTHER KNOWS HOW TO THROW A BIKE TOGETHER! 🔥

Start with a Yeti ARC. Add FOX Factory suspension and dropper, the incredible new Shimano XTR Di2 drivetrain, DT Swiss wheels, and Race Face ERA carbon cranks. Then sprinkle in a completely unreasonable amount of anodized bling just because you can. 😎

The result? One seriously outrageous hardtail.

The ARC has always been Yeti’s answer for riders who believe a hardtail should be anything but boring—fast, light, playful, and ready to be absolutely hammered. This build takes that attitude and turns the volume all the way up.

And that turquoise-and-orange combination? 🔥🔥🔥

There are Bike of the Day builds…and then there are builds that make everyone in the shop stop what they’re doing and come take a look.

Brother, you nailed this one. 🤘

Launching Friday, September 4th.

Nine riders have spent this year working with Factor engineers, riding, racing and refining what a gravel race bike can be. Seven have won. 13 victories between them.
Romain Bardet was one of them, helping us refine the answer to a question our racers asked of us.

Speed Over Everything.
