Summary

  • Teravail displayed two prototype stems at MADE—one conventional and one top-loader—signaling a possible expansion of its cockpit lineup beyond tires.
  • The brand released no specs, timing or sizing details, leaving lengths, rise, clamp size, colors and launch plans for the stems undisclosed.
  • Teravail also showed tires with denim-printed sidewalls, a cosmetic finish the company said little about beyond allowing photos at the show.
  • The Minnesota-based brand brought the concepts to support independent frame builders at MADE, where its tires and wheels were already appearing on some 32-inch builds.
