— The Air System

The end-of-ride ritual.

A handheld blower for cleaning and drying your bike after a ride. Reaches the parts a cloth can't.

— In the box

Everything you need, first ride.

One device and four magnetic nozzles — for the cassette, the frame, the bearing areas and the parts a cloth reaches but doesn't clean.

01 — Drivetrain care

Remove grit without contact.

Road grit packs into your cassette and jockey wheels on every ride. The precision cone nozzle blasts it loose — no brush required, no risk of smearing old chain lube deeper into the mechanism.

  • SpeedGear 3
  • UseEvery ride · 90 sec
02 — Fast drying

Stop moisture sitting in the wrong places.

Leaving a wet bike in the garage means moisture settling around bolt heads, cable junctions and seatpost interfaces — areas that corrode quietly over time. Three minutes of directed air before you put the bike away.

  • NozzleWide flow, 22 mm

  • UseAfter wet rides · 3 min
03 — Precision detailing

Reach where cloths can't.

A cloth handles the frame. The cassette gaps, headset cups, cable ports and bearing areas need something else. Four magnetic nozzles put airflow exactly where it's needed.

The post-ride ritual

The fifteen minutes after the ride.

The ride usually gets all the attention. The fifteen minutes afterwards is where bikes actually get looked after.

Wipe down the frame. Clear road spray from the drivetrain. Dry the awkward areas that towels can't reach. Put the bike away properly.

The Air System is designed for that part.

Why riders use it

Post-ride care is usually where good intentions collapse.

Road spray settles into drivetrains. Moisture sits around bolt heads, cables and seatpost junctions. A cloth handles most of the frame — but the cassette, the cable ports and the hard-to-reach areas are harder. Compressed air cans run out. Brushes don't reach everywhere. Most riders end up leaving it.

The Air System is designed for that window — between finishing a ride and putting the bike away. Directed airflow into the parts that matter. Simple enough that you'll actually do it.
