Bike parts that don't exist and we wish they did, but actually they do exist as not-bike parts

Yo I got fuckton of yards of cordura and can make that in a second. I mean shit man, making that out of xpac fabric would be cheaper than the arcteryx shit and xpac is like $20/yd

But to be fair I’d never have thought about that use for an item. Pretty clever and useful.

EDIT: Looked up the bag on arcteryx’s site. Okay you win. That’s fucking cool. Totally worth $35.

I have this recurring dream where a flash flood occurs and I grab all four corners of the tarp and tip Coffee Outside into the bag in two seconds flat during the escape.

This still hasn’t shipped, by the way. Is it normal to take 4 days to get something to the damn post office?

I had supgirl order a Rawland rack to replace her terrible Surly monstrosity

that was in late January, still hasn’t shipped from velocult

they reply with “did you get it yet” while their provided tracking number shows that USPS is waiting to recieve it

she was confused as to why I was talking so much shit about their business: “I was just setting expectations”

Velo Cult… not even once.

Sky is a perfect match for Sean,
Jeremy the birkenstock reviewer doing 5ft drops,
and Evan their social media manager who moved off the grid without internet access

Only literally crazy people could continue to work for Sky.

I ordered the demiporteur on Feb 3rd and got a tracking number same day, but the number says its still sitting out west, emailed yesterday got this

"Hey John,

There was a bunch of confusion and mixed signals at Velo Cult when the main shipper went on vacation. We are very sorry for the delay and we are here working on making sure everything gets shipped ASAP.

Best,
Sean"

I’m really happy to see how badly they’re doing even while working closely with a physical shop. The shipper goes on vacation and no one covers his duties. Classic!

radlawn news never disappoints. sorry about your guys’ racks not shipping though.

can we have a master google doc of Tarck’s approved vendors, companies, models, components, etc? this place oozes with useful information that needs documentation.

edit- yeah, I should probably get started on that

Velo Cult is the Radlawn of physical bike shops.

It’s a match made in heaven.

If I could look at one in person, sup and I might be able to modify the design to fit a couple common rack/basket sizes. Best if we could disassemble it.
