New Parts, New Stores

Been awhile since we’ve posted – that’s because we’ve been hard at work getting a new (and slightly improved) batch of StemCaptains made, just in time for prime riding season. The new clocks and thermometers feature a solid construction with a tempered glass lens, glow-in-the-dark sweep hands, and a new mounting ring style that installs even easier that the last build. These clocks are accurate and can take a beating.

The thermometers are very sweet too. One note on the thermometers that has come up a few times… Just like the any thermometer, if it’s in direct sunlight, it is going to give a slightly higher reading that actual. Our thermometers are accurate to +/-2 deg. F, and they look great!

New pics to follow on the site; the new stuff has a slightly different look that I think you will like.

Also, starting next weekend our product will be featured at two new stores in the front range: Full Cycle Bikes in Ft. Collins, and on the Hill in Boulder (as well as currently available at the Pearl St. store). Later in June we plan to have them at Pedal Power in Eagle, CO.

Stay tuned!

See you on the trail,

Upslope Brewing Company

Always one of the best components of an epic ride: parking lot beers. Nothing like packing a few on ice to have waiting for you back at the car after you just pedaled for the better part of a day (OK, for a couple hours at least). Well, there’s a new one to try out, brewed right here in StemCaptain’s hometown of Boulder, CO. Upslope Brewing Company is offering some tasty handcrafted brews – in a can! You can pick some up at several liquor stores in Boulder, or stop by their tasting room at 1501 Lee Hill Road in N. Boulder. The guys running it are friendly and aiming to appeal to the bike culture in Boulder. They will be happy to pour you a sample of their Pale Ale or IPA. Look for more varieties in the coming months, and for cans showing up at the parking lots and BBQ’s this summer.

Installation Instructions on YouTube

Wondering how the StemCaptain works? It’s pretty simple really. If you have a threadless headset, you simply unscrew the stem cap on your bike and replace it with ours. Check out the video on YouTube, or email us at info@stemcaptain.com with any questions.

Why have a stem cap that just keeps out dust?

Why have a normal stem cap?
