RIDER OWNED. RIDER MADE. / MANUFACTURED IN THE USA.

AFFINITY / EST. SEPTEMBER 2013

IT STARTED
IN A GARAGE.

Late September 2013. John Radtke and Chris Gascoigne. One car’s worth of space and an idea for a better handlebar.

Affinity grew out of riding. As the shop grew, team riders became the people making the bars. Rider owned and rider made became a description of the working day.

THE SHOP.
THE STREET.

Nolan Shoemaker, Jarrod Bruns, Monky, Devlin Pelphrey, Nick Donatelli, and Jon Devrind are part of Affinity’s riding history.

These are names from the archive, not a current team announcement. They’re part of how the brand got here.
