Bikecheck | Fede's Bombtrack Hook EXT Bikepacking rig

Federico Cabrera has been running 'Their Only Portrait' for the past 5 years. 'Their Only Portrait' is a project where Fede bikepacks around South America and takes and gives photos to local people in their small communities, which may be the only photograph they may have of themselves and their families. You can read more details about the project HERE.

For his latest trip Fede rode this Bombtrack Hook EXT. The Hook EXT has plenty of mounting points which is essential for Fede to carry his camera equipment and printer.

Film | Into the Rift

HUNT Beyond riders Jenny Tough and Sofian Sehili both emerged as winners, and feature prominently in the film.

HUNT Beyond: Supported Rider Bike Checks

The Gravel racing season is now upon us, or at least it should be. It looks like many of the gravel races planned for the year are now going to be postponed until safer times. However, that doesn't mean that there are not plenty of amazing gravel bikes sat around waiting to travel the world to some of the biggest gravel events and races.

We caught up with 5 HUNT Beyond supported riders, to run the bike check of all bike checks and see what bikes they are planning to race later in the year.

Off The Drop | Isla Short | XC World Cup Racer

We are super stoked to have Isla on our wheels for this season. With some race dates now being confirmed for this year, it's looking like September will be the start of the season. Isla will not only be racing for us but will also be helping us develop some top-level wheels designed to make the fastest of racers go even faster. Here is what she had to say when we sat down with her for a chat.

Gosse's New Gravel Bike

Time for another pro bike check! This time, it's Gosse's 2020 gravel racer.

The plan WAS, for Gosse to hit up some gravel events this season. He was coming with us over to Dirty Kanza, as well as returning to the Dirty Reiver and hit up some lesser known events in Scandinavia.

Alas, we'll sit & hold tight for now, and be sure to take you along for the ride with us when we're able to ride & race some of these events again. Until then, who better to talk you through his new bike than the man himself?

A Japanese Odyssey, by Eleonora Balbi

In October 2019 a super typhoon was closing in on Japan. Hagibis. Japan was ready: airports got closed, Shinkansens were put on hold, two rugby world cup games got canceled and everyone was getting prepared to spend a weekend inside.

Everyone except for 49 people who traveled to Kagoshima to go on a bike ride.
