Beautiful Bicycle: Specialized S-Works Crux 4

Round tubing, clean proportions, deep Zipp wheels, and a purple finish that does plenty on its own. This S-Works Crux 4 is a good reminder that the previous generation still has a lot going for it.

Full build is live in the latest Journal.

A Santa Cruz Tallboy dressed in black and orange.

Carbon Black keeps this Tallboy 6 understated, while orange anodized details add color through the Hope brakes, Industry Nine stem, Chris King headset and bottom bracket, and Onyx hubs. SRAM XX Eagle T-Type AXS and Berd HAWK30 wheels round out the 28-pound build.

Trail Series No. 02: The SPINE.

Inspired by one of the most recognizable sections of the Wasatch Crest, this limited-run shirt celebrates a line that has become both a local classic and a destination for riders from well beyond Utah.

Printed in a small batch and available now. Once it’s gone, we move on to the next trail.

What trail should we do next? Let us know in the comments.

Our first 2027 Orbea Orca Aero has landed.

Built around Orbea’s new Aero 360º approach, the latest Orca Aero takes a full-system look at speed, pairing a more aerodynamic platform with increased stiffness, refined rider positioning, and clearance for up to 37mm tires.

This one is now at the shop. Stop by Contender and check it out in person.

The OPEN UP 2.0 looks especially good in raw carbon, with the clear coat leaving the material on full display. Built with SRAM Force XPLR AXS, Reserve 40|44 GR wheels, and Pirelli Cinturato Gravel H tires, the rest of the build stays clean and understated.

Head to the journal for the full build.
