✋🏾✋🏼✋🏿 (also, how lucky are we to tap into such simple perfection? in a world that’s hard, this brilliant machine is pure delight)

Shout out to the outdoor industry photographers who get out of the comfort and access of the studio/city to capture the kinds of trips our customers go on! They work double and triple hard to document the ride, while riding! Here’s how one photographer on a recent photoshoot packed to get the shots.

True Story!
Have you ever been out on a long ride with all of your devices giving you ‘low power’ alerts? I’m still haunted by the time that I ran out of batteries on my navigation and was without cell service on a 137 mile gravel, in the middle of the night. If I had only had a power bank
with me, I could have avoided that situation. Since then, there’s no way I’m leaving without a solid charging set-up, and I’m never taking
this genius design feature for granted again.

Well that’s different

In bikes there’s the world of PR’s and stats and goals and competition

And then there’s Swift Industries where our motto is Chill Pace | Fast Friends. That’s what our kooky buddy Fox Guy is all about.

Did you know that for the last two weeks we’ve been quietly giving away these hats with orders over $175? It’s true! These hats were made special for MADE, and once they’re gone they’re gone!
We’re down to the very last few.

The industry old guard warned us not to make Luminary.
..Cyclists won’t buy color, they said.
You’re wasting your time, they said.

What if the old guard was so stuck in their narrow definitions of “cyclists” that they’ve been wrong this whole time?

Now that we’ve sold out of Luminary Zeitgeists 6 times, we’re questioning a lot about the industry old guard.

…Okay, you’re right.
That’s nothing new at Swift.
If we had bought their antics our indy, woman-owned brand that defies
most of the cycling industry’s stereotypes wouldn’t exist.

But that’s not in our nature, now is it?

We spent two years and lots of failed attempts getting this fabric right.

Call us stubborn
Call us tenacious.
Call us dreamers.

The names all fit.
