To Tanglefoot is to forget everything you thought you knew about how bikes are supposed to be. It's opening your mind to the cosmos and letting the telluric currents of the Earth guide you. Go camp on a frozen pond on the coldest day of the year, clear doubles on a drop bar rigid bike.
Knowledge is power. And that means going a bit slower, but riding longer, with less or no pain. Bikes shouldn’t feel like couches, but they shouldn’t feel like inquisition torture devices either.
What is the future of ATB bikes?
Forget normal bike fitting.
Analog loves hand built wheels like Neil Young loves tube amplifiers. We believe wheels should be reliable, easy to service, strong, stiff and outfitted to satisfy the customer’s current and future needs. So that’s the way we build ‘em. No gimmicks. We think wheels should last at least 10 years. Good wheels are not magic. They are a combination of well chosen and quality parts, methodical prep, high quality tools, and an unhurried build.
