MADE in the Shade

True to form, Portland, OR delivered the goods for the premiere US handbuilt bike show. MADE show, wrought from the ashes of NAHBS, shows the soul of the bike industry laid bare: its beauty & idiosyncrasies, the creativity & sheer weirdness that are the foundation of this strange world we live in.

Nothing is scaleable. We are here for the passion projects. We ogled the elegant creations from our favorite builders, we rode bikes, we ate bike-grilled hot dogs, we weathered the PDX-authentic rain & mist & will be back for more in 2025.

Show hall, early morning. Oh, did we mention it's like 99% dudes? Yeah, shocker.

Fan fave, the grill bike. Props to Mike from Prandus Bikes for the franks.

Are you even in PDX if you don't see a tall bike? Made our Austin, TX-raised team member miss that ATX scene. Watched this rider do a truly elegant dismount, btw.

Your crack ROTOR crew: Director Lori B, Sales Manager Preston, & Tech Trainer Adrian, with his Argentinian estilo. (style!)

Where the magic happens. Hope to see you all there again next year! Press coverage coming soon. Keep scrolling for more sick pics of the Mosaic Bikes featured in our booth & in Velo!
