The State Bicycle Co. team travels to West Texas, for Red Bull Rio Grande...the hottest race we've ever done.

State Bicycle Co. emerged into the fixed-gear scene with their original model the 4130 Fixed-Gear/Single-Speed. Since then, tens of thousands of riders have taken to the streets on the State 4130, drawn to it by its affordability, durability, and classic/timeless styling. After over a decade of manufacturing and 5+ years since major changes, the 4130 Fixed-Gear/Single-Speeds are getting a full overhaul.

Gravel racing doesn't have to be 9 months in advance registration, with $300+ entry fees, and hundreds of dollars in travel expenses. On Saturday, February 26th, 2022 - State Bicycle Co. hosted its first post-pandemic event and first ever all-road challenge, the Brownboldt Beam-Up. Check out the images here.
