“With our Surprise Me offering, we promise “No Hints, no regrets”. We’re known for our color work. Dating back to the early years, our customers have a lot of trust in our design sense. They provide a little direction and turn us loose, which is how to best harness our creativity and excitement.” says Sacha White, lead builder and owner of Speedvagen. “We took this one step further, giving people the option to pick a flavor and let us run with it.”
Looking for a more ergonomic upgrade to your dropper post’s remote control lever? The Crank Brothers Highline remote should work with most any cable-actuated dropper post and features infinite spherical adjustment (360° rotation / 22° tilt), universal mounting positions (top / bottom / left / right), and a simple single bolt hinge locking system that doesn’t require grip removal to install. It’s now sold separately from their Highline post for $/€59.99.
The new Jet XX is a modified, heavier duty version of their MTB roll that adds a holster loop for a CO2 cartridge that keeps it out of the way of other, more randomly shaped items, which lets it keep its small, burrito like shape more easily. It upgrades to metal buttons, which are more durable in extreme weather conditions (read as “freezing cold”) and won’t break if you over load it. Lastly, it adds a second leather strap, giving it a more secure hold under your saddle.
Retail is $70, available now at JustEnoughTools.com.
