Dave from Ellis Cycles stopped by the COG HQ photo studio yesterday with one of his raving beauties. This bike was built around the Shimano Di2 electronic derailleur system. Dave's seamless integration is something to behold. And by the way, this bike is for sale.

This week the cycling industry lost a very special man. That man is Phil Wood. He passed away at his Baxter, Iowa farm yesterday. Since 1971 the Phil Wood Company specialized in making hubs and components. In 1991 the company was bought by Peter Enright and other investors. To this day, they have continued the tradition of making bomb proof hubs and components. Thank you Phil Wood. We give you our deepest respects.
Chrome has produced 200 of these limited edition jerseys, designed by Garrett Chow and made in Italy by Capo. The only way to obtain one is to show up to an officially supported event and win. Good luck!
COG is deeply rooted in the 12 year history of Breakaway Bicycle Courier here in Milwaukee, WI. This past Tuesday we broke our steins and celebrated at the Old German Beer Hall. Prost!
HUGE thanks go out to: Kazane (Keirin Culture), Chrome, Panaracer, 3 North, HipsterNascar, CCP, Fredrik Packers, Orange 20, Fraser Design, Resistant, and everyone who came out!
