It’s new Donkey day for @bookofchad, who has the first 🇨🇦 TD4 via the fine folks at @fortstreetcycle. It’s great seeing some dirt on these steeds out in the wild! This one arrived just in time for Belgian Waffle Ride next weekend. . We’re working furiously behind the scenes …

If you’re at Grinduro this weekend, keep an eye out for @iridebikes_tomeetdoggos, he should be easy to spot! 🙌 . #flaanimalhttps://instagr.am/p/CscDZ4rOb9K/

In the second in this series about returning to cycling through life’s seasons, @thesavvyrogue takes us to that moment when it was time to pick up the bike again, and to ride it, and to challenge themself with adventures and goals that weren’t yet certainly attainable. This …

Speed. Not something Donkeys are known for, yet here we are. It’s crazy that this bike that is sometimes a loaded down beast of burden can also transform into such a stunning space ship. For this build our very good friend @squnge has a singular initial purpose in mind: He’s…

Boom. Ryan would like you to know: Flaanimals arrived! All sizes now back in stock. (We’ll update the website later, we’re tired! Even if it says on backorder, it’s in stock as of right now.) . If you’re waiting for yours it is in this shipment. We’ll get to work building, d…

Today the first production TD4 will be handed to its new owner. We couldn’t be more thrilled for this milestone. It’s been almost exactly a two year journey since we had to pivot hard and begin working on this bike, and the results will now begin to be enjoyed and appreciate…

Small victories, huge victories. Production CNC TD4 parts landed today and they look beautiful. We really wanted the details to reflect the passion we’ve put into this bike, and we’re thrilled to say that they do. First customer deliveries have begun. It’s a slow ramp up, th…

Here’s your Monday dirt forecast from @thomasoutriding : More dirt! . #flaanimal #rideexplorecreatehttps://instagr.am/p/CsRXP2Qxq8M/

Here’s the thing: If you take a Donkey to a MTB race, like for instance Arizona State MTB championships, and, hypothetically, you win it, you’re going to get a shout from Rodeo HQ. Congratulations @ch_smith_phx. Anyone silly enough to underbike with this much commitment gets…

“Hey Google, show me what a joyful bike looks like.” …🕕🕦🕚🕐🕥… “Ok, I found this build for you by @goldspoketacoma, it made me happy”. . #flaanimalhttps://instagr.am/p/CsJjK1Trr5O/

Continuing on that warm weather theme, even if it is dumping rain in Denver: It’s cherry blossom season! Mr. Woody had some very specific themes and inspiration for his Flaanimal Ti build, and he worked with Drew here at the lab to work up this super unique and gorgeous layo…

Summer is coming. Watermelon weather inbound! Happy New Bike Day, Lara! 💦 🍉 💦 . #flaanimal #rodeospork #rodeowheels #newbikeday #gravelbikehttps://instagr.am/p/CsFFq3BLL-G/

Howdy! We’ve just published our first Rodeo Newsletter! If you’re subscribed it may have hit your inbox (or spam folder? 😈) yesterday. Here are the topics that our intern chose to write about in it: 1. Will we support UDH? 2. Where is my (your TD4)? 3. Some spring ride and r…

Somewhere, out there, Greg’s new green, gold, and Ti beauty is getting its first taste of brown pow this weekend. 💚💛🩶 . #flaanimal #flaanimalti #rodeospork #rodeowheels #newbikeday #gravelbikehttps://instagr.am/p/Cr6KXuWrkfU/

@teichs17 has been brewing on a re-coat of his Flaanimal 4.1 for a while, so when he finally went for it he did not hold back! This three color layout is a fresh departure from the original layout, but also keeps some of the original elements in play as a throwback. Accented…

The stories of the people who ride the bikes that we make are amazingly deep and wide, and when we’re able to tell one of those stories it’s such an honor for us. In the latest post on the Rodeo Journal, Brynn Cafazzo (@thesavvyrogue ), begins to share their story in a multi…

It’s the little details that add up to a great bike. One of the late additions to the TD4 feature spec is rear chainstay dynamo routing. For those of you who are riding ultras or are on the go day and night, day after day, this routing option is just for you. . #traildonkey …

Project Denver // 27-04-2023 . #rideexplorecreate #projectdenverhttps://instagr.am/p/Crjjq3prdg_/

Our friends at @cerakote asked us if we could send over a nifty looking bike to showcase at HQ, so we had a good bit of fun putting some colors and patterns on a non-rideable pre-production prototype Flaanimal. Projects like this are a good opportunity to experiment with col…

Weekends are for adventure, and for reading about adventure. @albinrene / @rodeonederland just completed a beautiful 350km adventure in Italy on his Flaanimal and posted a lovely write up. Check it out at the link in our profile. . #rideexplorecreate #flaanimalhttps://instag…
