Kept ya waiting!
It’s already been a month since I came back from my LA trip. I am very excited to introduce you to the Beach Club Al Dente frames, designed by the people at The Cub House and handmade in Italy.
It’s an aluminum gravel bike and it’s fast. It’s been a while since I last built a 700c bike. I almost forgot that I love these kind of bikes since I first started riding sporty bikes like this.
One of the huge features of these frames is that these are all custom anodized instead of paint. They told us that it was a challenge nobody has tried, so it was super eye catching, new and of course beautiful.
The frames are made of Dedacciai aluminum tubings. The wide and aluminum tubings are simply beautiful. The bike is responsive and all around quick, which is one of the biggest charm of aluminum bicycles. They also have semi-internal routings like a modern gravel bike. Most of the cables are inside the frame, so the bike looks pretty dang sharp. It should become a fun bike to ride on the weekends or ride events.
A few of our staffs ordered the bike for themselves, so there should be some photos popping up on our socials in a bit.
We also ordered 3 stock frames, which are now available on our webstore.
I was lucky enough to attend the LA Invitational with my new Beach Club bike, which was super fun, but I’m personally super stoked about the collab stuff we did with The Cub House/Team Dream/Beach Club.

We sold the collab gear in the states first and this is the little video we posted.
Let’s look at some of the special products we made. First up is the Nitto bar end plugs.
We made pink and brown, a color Nitto has never made before.
As you can probably tell, these bar ends were inspired by the colorful American donuts.
Look how cute they look with the actual donuts. We are selling these bar ends individually, so you can pick two different colors for both sides and show that you love donuts!
The bolts for the bar ends will be picked out randomly, like sprinkles on donuts.
next up.
Our favorite Blue Lug character Safety Boy! Geared up in LA Dodgers uniform!
Stickers and pins are always around any bike brands. One other thing is bandanas, but for this collab, we made tenuguis. Basically, Japanese bamdanas

Last but not least, t-shirts!
They’re not just any t-shirts. These were all made in the U.S.!
The Safety Boy tees are available in beige and navy, which Matty and I are wearing in this picture. Going to watch the Dodgers game with this shirt was one of the highlights of the trip for sure.
The logo tees that Danny and I are holding are also made in the U.S. and was designed by the Cub House crew, which they are available in beige and dark brown.
It’s a nice simple t-shirt with both Blue Lug and The Cub House’s logo combined.
Thanks for reading all my LA report blogs. I sure had fun writing and I hope they showed how cool of an event LA Invitational was and how cool The Cub House crew were!
Thanks!
