10 Speed Coffee is dedicated to micro-batch roasting, ethical sourcing and building cycling culture through third wave coffee. We are constantly looking to find the best green coffee from around the world, and then roasting / cupping them to bring out the best possible flavor profiles. We offer bottled Japanese style cold brewed coffee, as well as Pressed Juicery and all the traditional style espresso preparations. 

The Shop at Pedalers Fork is the only MOOTS boutique in existance. We sell the complete line of MOOTS titanium bicycles hand crafted in Steamboat Springs Colorado. The Shop is a full service bike shop and will work on, build and order virtually anything. We are thrilled to help people with all questions and are eager to guide people into the sport.

GGR proudly welcomes back Atlas Brace as a Rocktober supporter! Check out the new Atlas Air!

"Entirely new, yet immediately familiar. From the moment it’s on your body, you’ll be comfortable using the Atlas Air. The sleek new design has been refined to fit better, move around less, and look better, while providing the unmatched comfort and mobility our customers know and love.

Does even more. Weighs even less.The new Atlas Air is unbelievably light - only 599g. And yet it’s more functional and adjustable than the previous model. With the new frame shape, added adjustability, and Easy Open system - all beautifully crafted into a smaller package - the Atlas Air is the best neck brace experience available. Period.

The best design is the one you hardly notice.Just like people, not all neck brace are created equal. The DNA of each Atlas Brace starts with our Split Flex frame technology. Controlled amounts of engineered flexibility mimic your natural body movements. We would say you can feel the difference, but actually you can barely feel anything at all.

Smaller. And Bigger.The sleek and slim new design is a smaller overall product than before, yet it has 27% more contact with your body than the competition. That massive amount of surface area helps spread out potentially harmful impact forces, with an enhanced comfort level making it feel like you are wearing less than before.

Now in color.With inspiration from high end running shoes, we are introducing a big step forward in comfort, durability, and color. The new padding is extremely light weight, incredibly tough and tear resistant, can withstand multiple impacts, is waterproof, and can also be manufactured in exceptionally vibrant colors to match anyones taste and style."
