Milwaukee Bruiser Polo Specific Frameset - NEW!!!

Here it is! Waterford manufactured Polo Specific Bruiser Frame! Frame is full True Temper OX Platinum and around 2 lbs. lighter than our Taiwan model.
Same great Bruiser geometry; with only a slight change suggested by the Milwaukee Bike Polo guys. A steeper seat angle / shorter top tube brings you closer to your bars and eases around the bar ball control. Want to see more specifics? Check em out on our site!

Over the Bars in Milwaukee/MKE 29er

Check out Dave's review on our MKE 29er. I'm glad you had a blast on it! If you don't know who Dave is, check him out here. He is a great source of all things bike related in Milwaukee as well as around Wisconsin.

Also check out his post on Wisconsin trails and infrastructure. Politics aside, Wisconsin is a great place for cycling. From having the largest mountain bike series in the country to great trails and paths; we have it pretty good here! I've seen a ton of improvements to our paths and feel a lot more comfortable riding around town. I hope to see more changes, but for now, if you live here, I hope you're enjoying all that Wisconsin has to offer!

Ben's Cycle/MKE Kits

If you all didn't know already, we have full kits for men and women. Get them here!

Upcoming Fall


Been pretty busy around here and I have a ton of stuff to post, but for now, let's talk about cyclocross! We have a great deal on Ultegra/Alex R450 wheels, perfect as a training set. I'm sure you'll find a use for a $200 wheelset!We also have some select new cross tires that should suit you on race day. Michelin Mud 2 and Clement Crusade PDX are in stock!Maybe this year I'll got off the mountain bike and actually do a cross race. I have a friend that is pretty adamant about lending his single speed Vanilla Speedvagen to race on. I don't know, it's quite a bit of bling for a rookie. But I guess why not! Regardless whether I race or not, I'll be at races heckling the heck out of my friends. Still really enjoying these summer days but am pretty excited for the fall season!
