Kole Cycles IBEX, Industry Nine Whisp XC, and Wilde Handle Bar Shims


Kole Cycles IBEX: Neo-Classical All-Terrain

Kole Cycles just unveiled the Futura "Ibex," a neo-classical all-terrain frame that reinterprets Rauler's lugged steel work and vintage Colnago through modern geometry. The lugs are hand-filed and pantographed by Dario, one of the few Italian craftsmen still practicing the technique, with tire clearance up to 29x3.0 on boost spacing. It's a frame built for commuting, day rides, and loaded bikepacking, still waiting on paint.

Industry Nine just launched the Whisp XC wheels, built with sister company We Are One and pairing Convergence carbon rims with the Solix hub platform. Complete builds run as light as 1,368 grams, with 605 points of engagement every .59 degrees. Hand-built in Asheville, North Carolina, pricing starts at $1,549. It's what last year's merger promised: two shops' best ideas in one wheel. You can order yours here ➡️ industrynine.com


Wilde Bikes Handle Bar Shims

Wilde Bikes just added handlebar shims to their lineup, a small fix for when your bar diameter doesn't sync up with your stem clamp. They come in three conversions: 22.2mm to 31.8mm, 22.2mm to 25.4mm, and 25.4mm to 31.8mm, priced at $13 each and in stock now. It's the kind of small, unglamorous part that quietly makes swapping handlebars painless.
