Green apple. Green bean. Green Lantern. Green Goblin. Jolly Green Giant. Green revolution. Green grass. Green with envy. Green light. Emerald green. Chris Tucker in The Fifth Element: “Are you green?” It’s anyone’s guess what Chris name his new Flaanimal 5, We’re sure it’ll never be mistaken for any other! Happy New Bike Day, Chris! #newbikeda #rodeospork #rodeowheels #gravelbike

The third (and final) Pack Rabbit MTB prototype was floating around Sea Otter this year, if you knew where to look. Built up and ridden by @iridebikes_tomeetdoggos, the build and aesthetic have a vintage MTB vibe with the aluminum wheels and components playing off of the USA made frame that we co-created with @wearespooky. The blue @cerakote FX fade was just enough to add some flair without taking away from the frame itself. Plenty of people have asked what’s up with the MTB project. The shortest answer is that the three aluminum prototypes were created to really hone in on geometry that we think will be appropriate for a trail / bikepacking bike, but they aren’t production intent. We have every intention of releasing a MTB, but years back we committed to making it a USA frame if we do it. That’s the part that creates the biggest hurdle, because we also want to keep the price in check. It’s “easy” to make a mountain bike overseas, it isn’t easy to make one domestically and keep the price within reach. We’re not in a rush with the project because the market is FLOODED with good hardtail options. We only want to enter the MTB market if we have something to add, be that features, design, or the fabrication story of the bike - or all 3! “But what about 32”? We will build some test bikes to evaluate 32, but aren’t rushing headlong into it. The rest of the industry will be there way before we are, and we can see if 32” sticks or fades based on what customers and riders decide, not the industry hype cycle. In the meantime, Adam says that this Rabbit rips, and we’re scheming heavily behind the scenes about where to go next with the project. Thanks for the photos @everett_dohh ! #packrabbit #rideexplorecreate

Life is short. Adventure often. 🫶🏻 Happy New Bike Day, Eoghan! #rideexplorecreate #traildonkey

When tragedy hits, it’s always a profound human loss. Tragedy can also be a deep well of inspiration for affecting change if we chose to take action. On the latest episode of the Rodeo Podcast we spoke with @thewhiteline.foundation, who have been relentlessly motivated, innovative, and effective since a motorist took Magnus White, who was out on a ride, from all of us in 2023. Road safety affects all of us cyclist whether out riding, through friends who do, or even when we ourselves are behind the wheel. Check out this episode to hear about the work being done to improve safety for everyone, and to learn about actual action you can take to support the effort. The Rodeo Podcast in available on all major podcasting platforms. #rideexplorecreate

Soon you’ll be able to upgrade or option any TD4.2 with our Laaaaaid Back slider and Spork 4.2 for more tire, mud, or fender clearance. More options. More Rodeo. #traildonkey #rodeospork #rideexplorecreate

The latest entry into the Rodeo MTB project lineage is another geometry study and prototype made in collaboration with @wearespooky, @srsuntour_inc, and @fsa_mtb. We started my baking up some fresh geo to ride and evaluate. Next, Spooky got to work fabbing the raw frame and integrating our Lockjaw dropouts. Next we hand polished and hand masked the absurdly detailed and absurdly unserious graphics just to remind ourselves that mountain bikes are first and foremost fun. The @srsuntour_inc Axon Werx fork brings silky smooth travel, remote lockout, lightweight carbon crown and magnesium construction - along with Olympic gold medal winning pedigree to the build. @fsa_mtb KFX Carbon componentey throughout will keep the ride light, nimble, and in control. Pack Rabbit’s goal is to be as nimble as a jackrabbit on the trails and as sturdy and reliable as a pack animal for multi day loaded adventures. Hat tip to @pnwcomponents for the limited edition dropper, @sellerepente for the hand made saddle, and @vittoriatires for the ever versatile Peyotes. @zenobicycle hydraulic couplers hint at the fact that this bike will also see quick swap drop bars before long. See this build in person at the SR Suntour booth at Sea Otter. Booth M64.

Gravel bikes and rally cars are definitely kindred spirits. Rally cars have some of the most iconic liveries of all time, and there are few things that we like more than a proper homage. This TD4.2 build is a nod to the vintage multiple World Rally Championship winning Lancia Stratos, draped in its green, red, and white Alitalia livery. We found the gold wheels of the rally car to be some of the most iconic features, so we couldn’t resist custom painting the @vision_tech_usa SC48 i25 wheels in a similar color. Sometimes painted rims can be too much, but this time it’s just *chefs kiss*. @campagnolosrl Super Record Wireless shifting with Super Record X rear mech was also a perfect pairing for this build, with its bottomless Italian heritage and mixed terrain pedigree. @vittoriatires 70x2.25 Peyote tires supply the grip, without the need for a co-driver to call out course hazards. @fsa_road componentry rounds out the build, with our favorite K-Force AGX bars and tidy integrated routing. Some things are best seen in person, and you can check this rally bike out in the flesh in the FSA / Vision booth at the Sea Otter Classic and Unbound expos this year. #rideexplorecreate #gravelbike #traildonkey

Alena’s custom TD4.2 does not lack for great colors and positive vibes. So much so that we just had to add some lasers to this gallery to match the mood. Happy New Donkey Day Alena! Thanks for the support! 💜💙🩵 #traildonkey #rideexplorecreate
