Oh Man. I waited 10 months for them to get that rack into production after seeing it at Interbike and finally just gave up on them. Ordered a CETMA instead… now I’m waiting for Lane to get back from vacation so I can finally get THAT one!
I’ve had it with flaky Oregonians!! ;-)
Just kidding, of course. I’ll probably get one of these for my wife’s bike….!
Works just as well (if not better) as a bike advocacy video than a sales pitch. Also has good value for tourism. Beautiful people on beautiful bikes through beautiful scenery.

Cool video, but it’s just offensive to see a Portlandite drinking crappy beer. The rest of the US will take some of those fine local breweries off your hands if you don’t want them!
Great video. And same as my bike, the Swobo Baxter. It’s a great bike ride! I almost got that rear rack but was worried it wouldn’t fit w the disc brakes. Now I know it does :)

I have a set of their Dapper Dan leather ergo grips. Nice grips. Very well made and they look great.

Love it!
My favorite part?
No G%d D@&$n helmets!
Drinking beer and riding bikes. Two of my favorite things. But I am smart enough to put a helmet on my mellon.
Awesome video…my only complaint, drinking Pacifico in Portland?????

No helmets on urban streets followed by drinking beer… While a nice video production, not great role modeling.
Wow, I really thought this was a local city campaign for cycling. Well done.
