PAUL Component Engineering and Sierra Nevada Brewing collaborate for trail stewardship fundraiser

  • Ron 

It’s no secret that Pale Ale is the favorite beer of Paul from PAUL Component Engineering, and this will be their 4th year collaborating on a custom for Sierra Nevada Brewery to show off at Sea and give away to a lucky winner. This year they decided to raise the bar by building up TWO bikes, and using them to help out two of their favorite trail stewardships!

One of these bikes will be used to raise funds for Sierra Buttes Trail Stewardship on the West Coast, and the other will be used to raise funds for Pisgah SORBA on the East Coast, both of whom will need major help rebuilding trails after some pretty gnarly natural disasters this summer.

About the bikes: PAUL stripped two Surly Straggler framesets, powdercoated them metallic Pale Ale green, then completed the theme by building them up with custom parts anodized gold (to match the Sierra Nevada banner and wheat) and blue (to match the sky and stream on the label) donated by these awesome companies:

White Industries cranks, bottom brackets and headsets

Industry Nine wheels

King Cage  cages

Dynaplug tubeless repair tools

PAUL Component  brakes, stems, seatposts, skewers, and seat collars

CampAndGoSlow  tape (Western Rattler themed for the SBTS bike, and Eastern Rattler inspired for the Pisgah SORBA bike)

Yuba Expeditions Downieville Classic saddle

Dingo Bags custom handlebar and frame bags that just happen to hold a row of Pale Ale cans

This really is an “Everybody Wins” situation, so a huge thank you to all the who have kicked in, and everybody who makes a donation, no what the size. Cheers!
