RMX Stem

New stem inspired by the vintage Nitto MT-16 BMX stem. We have the normal shorty lengths, plus a 100mm if someone has an unusual need for that.

Pake Alloy Frame Sets are Here

They took a little longer than we expected, but they are finally here.
Shops can order from our distributor Merry Sales starting in a couple of days if you ain't still stuck at Interbike. To our awesome customers who have been waiting: Please give your shops some time to get these.

We love the simple efficient round oversized tubes. It's just classic.
The hourglass headtube takes a 1-1/8" internal headset (Cane Creek IS type)
Track ends have replaceable steel plates. Includes a light but durable alloy crown carbon fork.

This thing is about speed, plain and simple. Plan on getting one soon.

Pake C'Mute "The Touring Bike"

Many thanks to Muuqi up in Seattle for sending us a great write-up he did about his C'Mute in the Life(Cycles) blog he writes. He built it up as pretty nice touring bike..that C'Mute is one versatile machine!! With its horizontal dropouts, the second rack eyelet sit pretty far back and give you better pannier-heel clearance than almost every cyclocross-styled do-all frame out there. (probably close to 450mm from the BB)

Legendary Freestyler at Bumstead

Garrison at Bumstead Bikes in Ontario, Ca sent us this pic. Freestyle rap artist, MC Supernatural was eying some of the complete Pake track build they had on the floor. Supernat ended up customizing a red Pake track frame into a hip commuter.
On August 5, 2006, Supernatural freestyle for over 9 hours whilst hosting the Rock The Bells festival in San Bernadino, Ca. The jaw-dropping rap placed him into the Guiness Book of World Records.

Lord of Griffith II Alley Cat

Looking for an epic alley cat to test those summer legs. This one promises challenging climbs and a Pake aluminum frame set and Burro bag to the winner. The winner won't be able to pick up the alloy frame with carbon fork on the spot, but it will be sent to the winner after they come in early September (yes they've been delayed a bit) and we get the winner's size.

Pedal Rev's genius C'Mute build

Pedal Revolution in SF built this up last month, we took it for a spin around the Mission and it was a dream to ride. It deftly maneuvered the Mission chaos with the grace of [reader's choice].
We loved the stitched white grips (comfy), white housing, white platform pedals and the black and white spacer scheme. And the fat 700c Conti's make easy work of any pothole. Go out and get one!!!
