Old Man Mountain & Astral Outback Painted Hills Ano Project

For MADE 2024, Old Man Mountain turned to their local landscape for inspiration. Central Oregon is home to the Painted Hills, a stunning geologic feature made of mineral-rich soils compacted into layers upon layers of striated color.

August 26, 2024 | The team at Old Man Mountain took these colors and made a special series of Axle Pack and Baskets, along with Astral Outback wheelsets. Parts are super limited to just 12 sets of Axle Pack, 12 Baskets, and 10 wheelsets. There are a few Baskets and Axle Packs available online here, the rest were available in person at MADE last weekend. Prices are the same as normal, just something fun they wanted to make!

Old Man Mountain Axle Pack is unlike any fork mount adapter. Rather than trying to clamp to round or tapered surfaces and just hope it doesn’t slip or spin, Axle Pack is, you guessed it: Thru Axle mounted! Attaching to the axle makes it impossible to slip or spin and easy to add 3-pack mounts to any fork.


The Old Man Mountain Basket bolts directly to racks for a stable and rattle-free ride. The basket pattern is Molle compatible so you can attach your favorite accessory pouches and is compatible with all “137” basket bags.

The wheelsets from Astral are Outback 700c rims that are made in Eugene Oregon from start to finish and laced to White Industries CLD hubs. Designed for long-distance travel on dirt. The 25mm internal width is built for adventuring, on endless gravel.

About Twotone Amsterdam

The roots of Twotone go back in 2007, when Twotone’s founder – Jon Woodroof – cofounded a fixed-gear focused bike shop in Atlanta, GA named No Brakes. His clothes nearly always matched his track bike & he earned the nickname Twotone. Jon cut his teeth on promoting his own shop, the brands they sold, and even suppliers, athletes, and other organisations they partnered with all before Instagram!

Those entrepreneurial roots grew into the hold your line, you'll be fine full-send approach to how we run our business today. A 10-year-old nickname became a Dutch BV in 2014 & Twotone has become THE one-stop-shop for cycling-savvy sales, marketing, and PR across Europe in the USA.

Over the course of the past nearly 9 years of helping brands find their way & have their say, we’re grateful for the successes, lessons, and trust! Schedule a meeting to learn more!
