  • We’re giving away this bike. It’s a bike with a story, and its story isn’t over. This one started out as an All City something or other. We can’t exactly remember which model. It might have had a gradient paint job? When we found it it was damaged with some rear triangle trauma. It was rescued from the scrapper and hung on the wall because it seemed a shame to toss. Years later we were developing prototypes of our LockJaw 2 sliders, and needed a frame to graft them onto for testing. This frame seemed a good candidate. The rear triangle was cut off and a new one grafted on here at HQ. You can do that with steel. The dropouts and dropout hardware were also CNC machined here. It was all an inside job. We repainted it. Kept it simple. It was 50% All City and 50% Rodeo now, so we named it the All Rodeo. We rode it. It slayed. Later we used it as a test bed for our straight steer tube Spork. More slay. And then that was it. It served its purpose. It got hung on the wall for years. Should we permanently mount it in the archives? It’s original Rodeo history now. But dang, it’s a good bike. It should be ridden. Can’t sell it. It’s a prototype. Then the idea hit: We should just give it to someone who will ride it and keep its story going. That feels right. So here’s the deal: It’s free. We will deliver it to the person we chose in the continental USA. Who is that person who should get it? You tell us. Fits someone about 5’9” to 6’0”, roughly. The rules: you can’t say “pick me”. You have to nominate someone else that you think deserves it and would give it a good story. Tell us why that is and make a case for your person. Send nominations to allrodeo@rodeo-labs.com. We will pick someone and will be in touch when we select them. That’s it. Happy nominating. To be continued. ❤️ #rideexplorecreate
  • Inspired by our Charrtruse Flaanimal 4.1 from 2018, Peter’s fully custom 5.0 brings back its excellent (vintage?) color combo, with a twist. Colorful layouts like this do make a good case for bringing back more ambitious factory paint options, but if you knew how much grief and delays the factory paint process caused, you’d understand why we brought paint in house and made bikes like this by request only! Happy New Bike Day, Peter! #flaanimal #rodeospork #gravelbike
  • Weekend Inspo! Tracy sent over some photos and a report on her 600km, week long Baja trip that she took on her TD3. Those blue skies, sandy tracks, and ocean waves have us full of envy! We told her that we thought she was underbiked for the trip, and gave her an email high five for that, but she also reported that “a lot of the terrain was totally fine for a gravel bike. But there was one descent in particular on day 5. … prayed for death” 😂 “slept in the middle of nowhere in the hills and also on beautiful beaches.” Thanks for inspiring us, Tracy! If you’ve got some weekend inspo, shoot a quick report and photos to bikes@rodeo-labs.com. We’d love to share! #rideexplorecreate #traildonkey #rodeospork #rodeowheels
  • By the time you read this, Emma’s Flaanimal 5 will be gone. It’s been swept off for a grand tour in Patagonia. Truthfully, we almost didn’t get it built in time, and then we did, thanks to the team at HQ that locked in ! Emma asked for an almost Neapolitan color scheme, accented by the important things: Doggos and cactus! Emma’s taste is impeccable. 🌵 🐶 🐶 Enjoy the first trip on your new steed, Emma! And happy New Bike Day! #rideexplorecreate #flaanimal #rodeowheels #newbikeday
  • We’ve got not one but TWO event recaps up on the Rodeo Journal this week. The first is from @ridingthefences , who had his maiden race voyage at the Hoffmaster gravel race in NorCal. Highlight of this one: probably surviving a crash and running over a bike in the process. BMX skills in action! The second recap was from @pmj.d who took on West Texas Showdown as his first ultra while having only one functional brake and suffering from the flu. Spoiler: He did great and stayed true to himself in the end. Find em at rodeo-labs.com/journal. Link in bio, as they say. If you’ve got a Rodeo recap to share, holler at us! We LOVE stories! #traildonkey #gravelracing #rodeowheels #bikepacking
  • We are excited to share this beautiful creation from our friends at @wearespooky! A brand long admired by cycling fans in the know, Spooky has always lead with style and function via their signature USA made aluminum framesets, and this build is no exception. The sharp eyed among you will notice a lot of interesting things going on in this build, but for those who don’t make it past that beautiful raw aluminum tubing, allow us to point out the highlights: First up: The first ever sighting of our Rodeo Lockjaw 2 sliders in aluminum form! We’ve now got Lockjaw 2 in the wild in carbon, titanium, steel, and aluminum, and each version works equally well, allowing for singlespeed adaptation, increased tire clearance, handling tuning, and potentially future proofing when new mounting standards are introduced. Second: check out the beautiful 1x chainring that Spooky is prototyping and previewing on this build. Also USA made. Third: check out that stem! Another Spooky creation and mind boggling with its machined aesthetic. Fourth: Spork + Spooky = wait those two words are hard to merge because they end up being the same words. Meant to be?! Fifth: Our 3.0X wheels are in the house! Still among the most durable and proven gravel rims on the market, and that isn’t hype, that’s proven through near zero incidence across every set we’ve sold. We’re excited to have rad neighbors like Spooky here in Colorado, and this isn’t the last collab you’ll see from us. Stay tuned! 👀 #wearespooky #rideexplorecreate #rodeospork #rodeowheels #lockjaw2
  • Rodeo and Texas go together like peas and carrots, so we’re inviting you to check out East Texas Showdown, and we’re giving away two free entries if you’d like to go!

Vibes @texasshowdownseries Photos @gvngld +Maxwell Johnston + Blake Davenport If you’re not already registered, drop a comment below and we’ll pick two as randomly as we can to send a code to. See you there, and Giddyup! #rideexplorecreate
  • We’ve got a new chef in our anodizing lab: @benefieldesign , He’s been putting out some lovely work lately, and we just had to share this artistry that he did on a Flaanimal 6.0 Titanium. He was experimenting with technique when we all collectively paused and said “wait, that looks familiar”. Who knew that you could so clearly evoke Van Gogh on a titanium bicycle frame? We’ve officially been put on notice! #rideexplorecreate
  • We interrupt our usual stream of color to remind everyone, including ourselves, that black is never the wrong non-color on a bike. Happy New Bike Day, Jeremy! #traildonkey #gravelbike #rodeowheels #rodeospork

Happy New Bike Day, Peter! #flaanimal #rodeospork #gravelbike

Weekend Inspo! Tracy sent over some photos and a report on her 600km, week long Baja trip that she took on her TD3. Those blue skies, sandy tracks, and ocean waves have us full of envy! We told her that we thought she was underbiked for the trip, and gave her an email high five for that, but she also reported that “a lot of the terrain was totally fine for a gravel bike. But there was one descent in particular on day 5. … prayed for death” 😂 “slept in the middle of nowhere in the hills and also on beautiful beaches.” Thanks for inspiring us, Tracy! If you’ve got some weekend inspo, shoot a quick report and photos to bikes@rodeo-labs.com. We’d love to share! #rideexplorecreate #traildonkey #rodeospork #rodeowheels

By the time you read this, Emma’s Flaanimal 5 will be gone. It’s been swept off for a grand tour in Patagonia. Truthfully, we almost didn’t get it built in time, and then we did, thanks to the team at HQ that locked in ! Emma asked for an almost Neapolitan color scheme, accented by the important things: Doggos and cactus! Emma’s taste is impeccable. 🌵 🐶 🐶 Enjoy the first trip on your new steed, Emma! And happy New Bike Day! #rideexplorecreate #flaanimal #rodeowheels #newbikeday

We’ve got not one but TWO event recaps up on the Rodeo Journal this week. The first is from @ridingthefences , who had his maiden race voyage at the Hoffmaster gravel race in NorCal. Highlight of this one: probably surviving a crash and running over a bike in the process. BMX skills in action! The second recap was from @pmj.d who took on West Texas Showdown as his first ultra while having only one functional brake and suffering from the flu. Spoiler: He did great and stayed true to himself in the end. Find em at rodeo-labs.com/journal. Link in bio, as they say. If you’ve got a Rodeo recap to share, holler at us! We LOVE stories! #traildonkey #gravelracing #rodeowheels #bikepacking

We are excited to share this beautiful creation from our friends at @wearespooky! A brand long admired by cycling fans in the know, Spooky has always lead with style and function via their signature USA made aluminum framesets, and this build is no exception. The sharp eyed among you will notice a lot of interesting things going on in this build, but for those who don’t make it past that beautiful raw aluminum tubing, allow us to point out the highlights: First up: The first ever sighting of our Rodeo Lockjaw 2 sliders in aluminum form! We’ve now got Lockjaw 2 in the wild in carbon, titanium, steel, and aluminum, and each version works equally well, allowing for singlespeed adaptation, increased tire clearance, handling tuning, and potentially future proofing when new mounting standards are introduced. Second: check out the beautiful 1x chainring that Spooky is prototyping and previewing on this build. Also USA made. Third: check out that stem! Another Spooky creation and mind boggling with its machined aesthetic. Fourth: Spork + Spooky = wait those two words are hard to merge because they end up being the same words. Meant to be?! Fifth: Our 3.0X wheels are in the house! Still among the most durable and proven gravel rims on the market, and that isn’t hype, that’s proven through near zero incidence across every set we’ve sold. We’re excited to have rad neighbors like Spooky here in Colorado, and this isn’t the last collab you’ll see from us. Stay tuned! 👀 #wearespooky #rideexplorecreate #rodeospork #rodeowheels #lockjaw2

Fifth: Our 3.0X wheels are in the house! Still among the most durable and proven gravel rims on the market, and that isn’t hype, that’s proven through near zero incidence across every set we’ve sold. We’re excited to have rad neighbors like Spooky here in Colorado, and this isn’t the last collab you’ll see from us. Stay tuned! 👀 #wearespooky #rideexplorecreate #rodeospork #rodeowheels #lockjaw2
We are excited to share this beautiful creation from our friends at @wearespooky! A brand long admired by cycling fans in the know, Spooky has always lead with style and function via their signature USA made aluminum framesets, and this build is no exception. The sharp eyed among you will notice a lot of interesting things going on in this build, but for those who don’t make it past that beautiful raw aluminum tubing, allow us to point out the highlights: First up: The first ever sighting of our Rodeo Lockjaw 2 sliders in aluminum form! We’ve now got Lockjaw 2 in the wild in carbon, titanium, steel, and aluminum, and each version works equally well, allowing for singlespeed adaptation, increased tire clearance, handling tuning, and potentially future proofing when new mounting standards are introduced.

We’ve got a new chef in our anodizing lab: @benefieldesign , He’s been putting out some lovely work lately, and we just had to share this artistry that he did on a Flaanimal 6.0 Titanium. He was experimenting with technique when we all collectively paused and said “wait, that looks familiar”. Who knew that you could so clearly evoke Van Gogh on a titanium bicycle frame? We’ve officially been put on notice! #rideexplorecreate

We interrupt our usual stream of color to remind everyone, including ourselves, that black is never the wrong non-color on a bike. Happy New Bike Day, Jeremy! #traildonkey #gravelbike #rodeowheels #rodeospork

OUR VALUES

RIDE

Our bikes as hard as we can. Never lose touch with the fact that true inspiration for everything we do comes from time spent in the saddle.

EXPLORE

If we stay where things are familiar we will quickly grow stale. To stay challenged we always seek out the new. New paces to ride, new goals to attempt, and new people to collaborate with.

CREATE

When we return home from our adventures we take our experiences and turn them into things that we can share. Stories, photos, videos, and inspired products are the fruit of our labor.
