Surprise! Surprise!
▪️
Ryan's wife contacted me awhile back to get Ryan a birthday gift for his newly minted @surlybikes Bridge Club that is destined for a summer of adventures.
▪️
With a few color suggestions I was set loose to create the perfect FramePak and SnakPak.
Liteskin main panels with Yellow & Black XPac accents + Light Gray thread contrast nicely with the Diving Board Blue color of the Bridge Club
▪️
Ryan's headed East tomorrow to shake this beauty down and hopefully get some miles in on the Katy trail.
▪️
Happy Birthday Ryan and enjoy the ride!!

JPaks has been custom since day one and I've got no plans to change that.
Seems like I hear of another maker dropping out of the 'custom' game every week. Sadly.
I get it, custom is tricky, it takes time (a lot!) and it's slow, but you know what?
It's the only way I know how.
▪️
Made by hand, one at time, with the attention to detail and love you've come to expect from JPaks.
▪️
I've always said "These Paks are as stoked to explore as you are."
Because it's the love I have for bikepacking and making things with my two hands ❤️
▪️
It's my way of life and you can count on JPaks to still be making custom for a long time to come!
▪️
CANNOT wait to see this custom HalfPak mounted up to my buddy Scott's Huffy!
Liteskin LS42 & LS21 panels with Red top edge and Gray stitching + custom patch

NAHBS tomorrow!! But first, lets throw it back Thursday to 2015 when Zen Bike Co. asked me to be a part of their NAHBS bikepacking build.
- Fully bolted FramePak
- 157x12 rear spacing (4yrs ago)
- 27+ or 29
- Handmade in the USA
▪️
@davidworonets was way ahead of the curve that is just now catching up
▪️
Four years in a row now I've been able to present Fully Bolted FramePaks on builders rigs.
HUGE thanks goes to @zenbikeco @breadwinnercycles and @mosaiccycles for letting me be a part of the team!
▪️
This year's 2nd co-lab with Aaron from Mosaic Cycles takes things up another notch and I can't wait to see/share the goodness!!

Damn, not even mine but I want to keep it sooooo badly! #babyjoey
▪️
Here's some context for size.
Utilizing 3/4" webbing and cam-lock buckles for all the room on the flats, along with easy disconnect and a carrying handle to boot.
▪️
Debuting at NAHBS and maybe, just maybe it'll make it into the stock product list.
▪️
Whatchu think?

As a 3rd generation Colorado native, @fatbikecolorado puts a lot of value on things Made in Colorado, especially by hand.
▪️
For this reason he chose to have @proudfootcycles build him a fat bike of his dreams and he chose me to fill that massive space.
His custom Proudfoot fatty is one of a kind and it has by far the biggest HalfPak I've done to date!
26.5" across the inside top means that Matt can keep his back free from the backpack on those cold winter mornings, chasing fresh tracks.
▪️
Simple black XPac panels with emerald green accent thread and CO flag patch to tie it all together.
Matt, I sincerely appreciate your support and patience
Thanks again!!

Clean, so clean
▪️
Thanks to @ripstopbytheroll for the custom OutdoorInk printed Orange Camo and thanks to @mosaiccycles for the bolt-in provisions to provide that Uber solid and clean mounting!
▪️
One of a kind doesn't even begin to describe this build
