Bikeworks ABQ

Going to Angel Fire this weekend? Now’s the chance to give your poor trail bike a break and get that DH rig you dream about every summer while you’re riding the lift and trying to decide how many more runs you can handle.
We have a couple of Pivot Phoenix sleds in the shop, Size 2 and Size 3. Pro build with Saint drivetrain and Fox Factory suspension. Normally $9499. Come in or call to find out the sale price!
Thanks to the one and only Theo Bott for the awesome photos!

We had a good ol time at the Vermejo Charcoal Burner last weekend. The ride was some classic hard but fun, and Anona even won the Women’s race for the 66 mile. 5 stars, would race again.

Special hours alert!!!
Who has twelve thumbs and isn’t working this weekend? Everyone at the shop, that’s who!
We are closing at 1pm on Friday 5/15, not to return until Tuesday for normal hours. We will be participating in the Vermejo Charcoal Burner gravel race. If you don’t know about it, check it out, and go do it next year!
¡Besos!

We sell road bikes too! Here’s a sweet Enve Melee that is going out the door today with our good friend James. The Enve complete bike program is really cool, and is basically a custom bike builder where you get to specify nearly all the specs on the bike. And the paint jobs are just so good.

New tool day! This is exciting if you’re a nerdy bike nerd who likes tools. We have never been impressed with the Park disc tab facing tool, so we upgraded to the VAR. Way nicer to use! Having the best tools available is always worth the investment. (If you’re wondering what this is, a disc brake mount facing tool cuts the brake mating surface of the frame so that it is perfectly perpendicular to the axle / parallel to the rotor, and makes sure that both mounting surfaces are on the same plane. This can fix issues like hard to adjust brakes, noisy brakes, and uneven brake pad wear.)

Last week I (Lucero) went to Fox’s new Suspension Academy. After 20 years of working with suspension, it was nice to get some formal training from Fox for the first time. The class was pretty intense, we spent 30+ hours over three days rebuilding numerous fork dampers, rear shocks, and dropper posts.
I picked up a lot of technique, have some new tools to buy, and met some cool people.
Thanks for the opportunity , I look forward to the next class!

New brand alert! We signed up with Commencal for their partnership program. You can order through us, or on their website to pick up here at the shop. Let us put it together for you!
This TEMPO Power is a very nicely equipped mid power / short travel e bike for $6k.
We sold Commencal back in the day when they first showed up in the US, and we’re excited to have them back.

Lucero just picked up a Pivot Vault with the Force XPLR 13 speed group. The new copper color definitely matches one of the many shades of brown on his beloved ratty Westy! What do you think, would that be a good color for a repaint?
