Throwback Thursdays: 2003 Interwolf 38/38

The Other Downieville

Throwback Thursdays: Driftin' in '93

This might as well be a how-to on old school drifting.  Step 1, put foot out.  Step 2, drift.  Step 3, regain composure.  If that's not savage enough for you, peep this line: Big cloud, real dude...

Throwback Thursdays: 1997 New Tire Standard

Everybody is frumpy about tire standards these days.  Too many sizes, too many standards.  Guess what, that's happened before.  In 1997, WTB sought to revolutionize tire size standards with GMS, w...

Rad Bikes of Interbike

There were many rad bikes at Interbike.  Several of them were in our booth.  BLAO!  Shameless. Pretty sure I can back up that lofty claim though.  We used four bikes to create four stories, four c...

Throwback Thursdays: 1999 WTB MP250 Stealth Clipless Pedal "Project"

I once met a wise man who told me he worked for WTB on the MP250 Project.  Project.  Hmmmm.  That's certainly a curious word choice.  Why not say I worked on the MP250 pedals, or the Stealth pedal...

Throwback Thursdays: 1992 WTB Trailgrips

We now call them Original Trail Grips, a head nod to the history of the Trailgrip.  That also means we still sell 'em.  Yes we do.  These are my absolute favorite grips - there is something about ...

What You Also Buy with a Handmade Bike

It's Tour de France time, people are excited, some even mountain bikers - focus is perhaps even shifting from the 2014 FIFA World Cup.  So what's up with our favorite leg shavers?  Where are they,...

Rain or Shine... Victory

In Durango, it was beautiful - too hot even at times and no rain atop the ever ominous and lightning-infested Kennebec Pass, pictured above, that racers, like Marco, shredded with no relent. Shred...
