PRODUCT
WHERE ARE ALL THE REVEL BIKES MADE?
It’s a worldwide collab. All of our carbon fiber and titanium bikes are made overseas in China or Vietnam, in the best factories in the world. We employ five people in Taiwan to specifically check every single frame before it leaves our factories. We are proud of the Asian factories we work with and they are proud to work with us to create some really badass bikes. We then assemble every Revel bike by hand at our Carbondale, Colorado facility before it is shipped to you.
WHEN WILL NEW MODELS BE RELEASED?
"In the future." Unfortunately, at the moment, that is our best answer for you.
As a small company, we must grow slowly and deliberately. Revel does not tie itself to a product line or annual release timeline. From the outset, Revel’s founders wanted to build bikes that they wanted to ride. With only a few bikes in the stable, it is safe to say that no one is satisfied and there is more to come!
When we get something perfected, you’ll be the first we’ll share it with! Join our mailing list to be sure you receive notifications of any new releases!
We are always working on something new and exciting!
HOW ARE YOUR FRAMES PAINTED?
By hand with love and care. To us, paint is never an afterthought. We put endless amounts of time into developing and selecting our colors. Because we put so much emphasis on quality and durability, all of our frames are hand-painted, then diligently checked in multiple stages so your bike looks perfect when it arrives.
HOW OFTEN WILL NEW COLORS BE RELEASED?
The limit does not exist, but there’s no set schedule either. At Revel, just like the rest of the bike, we put focus, time, research, and energy into every color we choose. We are always getting paint samples of unique colors to see if the vision matches the final product.
Once in a while, you’ll see a one-off color in the wild. This may be a promotional bike we create in conjunction with a charity, like our friends at Love Your Brain. Occasionally, a sample arrives and doesn’t match our expectation. At that point, we find a friend in need and hopefully make their day.
ORDERING
HOW DO I KNOW WHICH BIKE IS FOR ME?
Don’t rush, it’s a big decision. Although our lineup may be small, our bikes have big personalities. We’re here to help you find the perfect bike to suit your trails and style of riding.
Ritual – Long travel (165mm)makes this bike the ideal weapon for charging through the rowdiest terrain. Both up and down the trail, CBF makes things a breeze by maximizing pedaling efficiency, minimizing brake jack and smoothing out the gnarliest of lines. We’d go ahead and say this is the most agile and playful bike in our lineup.
Rascal– A mid-travel, 29er trail bike meant to do it all. Sitting nicely between the Ritual and Ranger in our roster, the Rascal is a quiver-killer that will take you just about anywhere. At home on multiday alpine singletrack quests, quick lunch loops, and even a bike park lap or three, this is the bike that will have you prepared for whatever your ride may bring.
Ranger – 29” wheels and hyper-efficient, short-travel suspension that punches well above its weight are the name of the game here, baby. This is our bike most at home on the XC race course and long trail rides with big elevation gains, built to grind out the most soul-crushing climbs with ease before dusting the competition on the way back down.
If you have any questions regarding which bike fits your needs best, you can always reach out. Our super-knowledgeable sales team will answer any questions and help you find the perfect match.
CAN I TRY A BIKE BEFORE I BUY?
Check with our dealers! Retailers all over the US and the world have Revel bikes available to demo. It may be a bit trickier to find one, but they’re out there! If you head to our Dealer Locator page, you’ll see a list of where our demo bikes live all around the world. Be sure to call your local shop ahead of time to check availability.
If you are near Carbondale, CO, we are lucky to have teamed up with Aspen MTB School at the Snowmass Bike Park. Not only do they have a full fleet of our bikes, but they provide top-of-the-line service and have direct access to some of the best downhill and cross-country riding in the state. Give them a call at (970) 404-0665 to reserve your demo bike today!
CAN I ORDER A CUSTOM COLOR FRAME?
Unfortunately, we do not offer custom paint jobs.
CAN I ORDER A BIKE WITH PARTS NOT LISTED ON YOUR SITE?
Sadly, no. Due to current supply chain issues and parts shortages, we’re unable to accommodate most parts requests. We offer a solid number of options for customization on our website that we’ve hand-picked for quality and performance; if and when the supply chain gets back to normal, we may be able to get more creative with custom parts.
COMPANY
ARE REVEL BIKES AND WHY CYCLES THE SAME COMPANY?
Yep, just different brands. The same people that design and support the Revel Bikes products also represent our sister company Why Cycles. While we all love the full squish ride, many of us enjoy the supple yet stiff characteristics of Why titanium when adventure biking.
WHEN DID REVEL LAUNCH?
Spring 2019! Although Revel is a relatively young brand, our sister company Why Cycles has been around since 2015 so we are no newbies to the bike world.
WHERE IS REVEL LOCATED?
In the beautiful Carbondale, Colorado! We love being part of the small mountain community in the Roaring Fork valley with world class hiking, fishing, biking, and skiing right outside our front door!
CAN I SWING BY THE SHOP WHEN I’M IN CARBONDALE?
We’d love to have you, just give us a heads up! The Revel warehouse is located in Carbondale, CO, just a half mile from the Roaring Fork River, where you’ll often find the Revel raft (S.S. David Boatie) floating in the evenings after work.
We love having guests come by and see where we spend our days! We do ask that you please call in advance to ensure someone is available to meet you. If so, we’ll give you the full tour, pull some espresso shots and geek out on some bikes! We are open Monday – Friday, 9am-5pm with some in and outs for group rides, off campus meetings, etc.
