Race Face

Race Face has been building mountain bike components and apparel out of Vancouver’s North Shore since 1993 — and that origin shows in everything they make. Born when the available gear couldn’t keep up with the riding, Race Face set out to build components that are strong, lightweight, and durable enough to survive the kind of terrain the North Shore demands.

At RA Cycles, the Race Face collection covers the full spectrum of MTB equipment: the CINCH crank system and bottom brackets, the Atlas and Aeffect flat pedals, Aeffect dropper posts, wide-rise handlebars, mountain wheels, and grips. Apparel and protection round out the range — from the Ruxton liner shorts and Indy jerseys to Charge knee and elbow pads. Whether you’re building out a trail bike or replacing worn components, Race Face covers most of what goes on it.

About Race Face

Race Face was founded in 1993 in Vancouver, British Columbia, born from a group of North Shore mountain bikers who needed gear that could keep up with the riding. The North Shore — with its technical roots, rocks, and steep terrain — became both the brand’s home and its proving ground. The CINCH crank system established Race Face as a standard-setter for modular drivetrain compatibility in the MTB space, and every product goes through rider testing on world-class terrain before it reaches the market. Visit Race Face’s official website to explore the full lineup.

RA Cycles carries Race Face across components, apparel, and protection. On the component side: Atlas and Aeffect flat pedals, Sixc wide-rise handlebars, Aeffect dropper posts, CINCH cranksets and bottom brackets, Turbine R mountain wheels, and Getta Grip handlebar grips. For gear, the Ruxton liner and Indy jersey cover trail-day basics, while Charge knee and elbow pads — and Covert knee pads for higher-impact riding — handle protection when the terrain gets consequential.

Explore RA Cycles’ full selection of mountain bikes, flat pedals, dropper posts and seatposts, and Race Face wheels to round out your build.
