Are you looking to get your hands on some new grips? Take a look at Sam Lowe’s signature grip from Wethepeople. Sam wanted a longer and thinner grip that had a sticky feel. You can also find a ribbed pattern with Sam’s signature, no flanges and plastic plug bar ends. The grip is available in cyan blue, black, gold and white and should be hitting shops everywhere Wethepeople is available soon.
The grip is currently unavailable online. Have your local shop hit up Seattle Bike Supply here in the U.S to see if they can get you a pair.

Madera have recently made the addition of their new heat-treated Protocol cranks. These 4130 chromoly arms are swaged, which means they are forged to create a stronger design, then get a full heat-treating process to finish things off creating stronger arms that will hold up to anything you can throw at them. Along with this new heat-treating process, they are offering a limited lifetime warranty that covers cracking and bending of the arms and spindle. These cranks come with a 19mm 48-spline GDH spindle.
The HT Protocol cranks are available in 175 and 180mm length with right and left hand drive options and matte black with more color options coming down the line.
You can pick these up from Dan’s Comp for $142.99, direct from Madera for $149.99 (more options) or have your local shop call up Profile Racing to get you a set ordered up.
