Mountain biking is so much more than vertigo inducing GoPro footage, life threatening speed and laser guided seat posts. I love that my bike carries me away from the noise of the world and out into the peace of the woods. I always feel a bit uncomfortable when I realize I work in marketing (I blame formative years listening to Bill Hicks) so I have done my best to be sincere in what I do. This is how I really feel on most every ride. I hope this inspires you to get out into the trees and take some deep breathes.
Thanks to Logan Nelson for helping me try to share what I love and thanks to Fairdale for the Elevator ride out there. #oldmantabletops
Fairdale is happy to introduce the Elevator; our 29″ hardtail mountain bike that comes fully equipped with a SRAM GX Eagle groupset, a RockShox Pike fork, Alex wheels, Maxxis tires and more.
The Fairdale Elevator is a BMX-inspired, full chromoly all-arounder with a geometry that is focused on nimble maneuverability and predictable climbing and descending. While many modern bikes are long and low, the Elevator’s unique ride-feel will let you easily throw in a manual or re-adjust your position on a line, thanks to the super short 406mm chainstay length.
Bikes are available NOW through your favorite shop as well as online. There’s no other bike like it, and we’re stoked it’s finally here!

Quickly adjust your riding line and throw in a manual with ease thanks to the unique super short 406mm chainstay length.
We were pretty stoked when Fat Tire approached us to make this years Fat Tire bikes, which coincided with a rebranding of the cans/packaging. The bikes came out sweet and feature new art from @tajlucas and Fat Tires new color palette. Swipe for a closer look.
Fat Tire use these bikes for promotion, store displays and giveaways, but one is up for grabs!
We’re happy to introduce the limited-edition Vans x Fairdale project, which includes a Taj cruiser, BMX Sk8 Hi and Old Skool sneakers, water bottle, shirt and a giraffe!
Vans has been a strong Fairdale supporter over the years, so it was only a matter of time before we partnered up on a bigger project. Drawing inspiration from both of our worlds, this project combines a classic Vans aesthetic with Fairdale’s fun and playful take on branding.
In all seriousness (kinda), It was a huge honor to design some actual Vans and put a giraffe on them. Perhaps you too can perform the Kiss of Death!
