Portland United Takes 3rd

Last week I got an email from our friends at Portland United. They recently built up some Scramblers with Julian’s, splined cranks, chainrings, and EighthInch riser bars. This past weekend they took their trio of new Scramblers up to the Cascadia Qualifier and took 3rd place. Congrats guys, see you in Milwaukee for the NAHBPC! Check out the full results here.

Lancaster Bike Polo 48h Julian Review

A few days ago Lancaster Bike Polo posted a nice review on our 48h Julian V2 wheelset. I have to admit, it was one of the more entertaining reviews I’ve read lately.  After putting them through match after match the wheels performed great. 48 spokes, triple walled rims, sealed formula hubs, and a $159 price tag, what  more could you ask for out of a polo wheelset? Check out the full review on Lancaster Bike Polo or pick up a pair of Julian’s on WS-Outlet.com.
