Back in the winter/spring of 2019, Sam Pickman and I were riding and testing prototypes of the new ALLIED ABLE on the endless primo singletrack in and around Bentonville, Arkansas. For us, and specifically me, it was a time of profound enlightenment around what a more capable gravel bike could do. It was also some of my first exposure to the fast and flowy trails in NWA where we were ripping around on this drop bar offroad machine. We played and laughed. We’d stop and talk about the bike, changes needed, and about how much fun was to be had in them there woods.
