Head over to The Come Up to check out the new Profile Racing edit from the trip that Grant Castelluzzo, Jared Eberwein, Jeff Klugiewicz, Mike Meister, and Matt Coplon took to Tulsa before heading south to the Texas Toast Jam! So good.
Products: Vol. XXIX
It just wouldn’t be Saturday if there’s no Products: column! I’m not about to let you guys down, so let’s take a look at what’s on deck for this week. In this edition, we’ll take a look at Profile‘s new limited edition pink colorway, the 33 Forks from And Forks, The Shadow Conspiracy‘s plastic Ravager pedals, Madera‘s 17mm / 8mm Hex head bolts and Deluxe‘s F-Lite stem. Let’s get into it!
Profile Racing – Made in America Diagram

One thing I’ve always respected about Profile Racing is that they have stuck to their guns and kept everything American made regardless of the economy or if they could have it made somewhere else for a lot cheaper. Matt went and put together this diagram showing you just how they get those dialed parts done with the help of local businesses in Florida. Pretty rad.
“This week I got with a couple of the shop guys and put together a diagram of our vendors. Profile is made up of a total of 22 full and part time employees.
When you think of how much product we produce (everything is done, initially, in-house), promotions, logistics, web management, team management, sales, etc…on top of having to physically assemble every component that goes out of here, the total number of people handling things is minimal.
Beyond what we do here, we rely on a pretty large amount of outside vendors to finish our product: Anodizing (aluminum components), black-oxiding (steel parts), painting (cranks and white components), etc…
With that in mind, the vendors listed below are all in the state of Florida (with the exception of one chromer who is out of state). Considering Profile keeps everything local (and within the US), we actually contribute to the employment of multiple companies.” – Matt Coplon / Profile Racing
