MADE 2026 Part 2: Bold Handbuilt Rides and Cargo Concepts Shine

Part two of MADE 2026 highlights a mix of handbuilt and production bikes—from Slow Southern Steel’s Black Sabbath–inspired 32er hardtail to Velo Orange’s Escargot cargo bike and Neutrino Gen 2—plus Rodriguez Bikes’ travel-ready gravel with S&S couplers, San Util Design bags, and standout builds from Significant Other, Mad Monkey Designs, and Tumbleweed’s 32-inch Sunliner; the coverage captures clever cargo solutions, touring rigs, and final-year vibes at Zidell Yards on the Willamette River.
