Egress Bikes - Custom Singlespeed Race MTB

The simplest bikes often have the strongest visual pull. No distractions, just the beauty of the design.

Jimmy Röstlund is Egress Bikes. Originally native to Scandinavia, he calls Australia home. Relatively new to building bikes, he has a number of frames of his belt ranging from his roots in BMX, to MTB, Gravel and road.

He punished his own Egress MTB on the Vic Divide 550 bikepacking event as well as the entree leg of the RTTR - a gruelling test for any bicycle.

For the Handmade Bicycle Show Australia, Jimmy featured two rigs. A gravel bike and this süper sweet singlespeed MTB.

The bones of it are a fillet brazed Columbus Zona frame, with Paragon dropouts - and an awesome arsenal of components. Industry 9, Hope Tech, Whiskey, Praxis, and THAT Intend stem by Cornelius Kapfinger.

Paint by Velocraft is divine and comes alive in the natural light.

Klein Attitude MTB - 1990s dream bike

The Klein name alone immediately conveys cool. Was it the oversized tubes, the iconic paint, the one hanging on the set of Seinfeld? Maybe it was all of that and more. There's a great historical piece on the first...

Make it Rust - Surly Krampus 29er MTB

Seeds of inspiration come from many places, people and times in your life. This particular project was a trinity of influences, fused into one. The first was an ode to my first steel mountain bike - The Shogun ‘Trail Breaker’. ...

First time for everything.

New Favourite Shorts!

I purchased the Ardent MTB Shorts for trail riding and absolutely love them. Super comfy and the pockets work!!! No phone slap!!! I went a size up from normal to allow for knicks on some of my longer rides. This was perfect.

Excellent to hear you're lovin the shorts! Thanks for the great review.

Ride safe.
