To test-ride this new release, we partnered with Away Message, the San Francisco–based concept race team whose creative approach to cycling mirrors our own. Their shoot became a calm escape from chaos: a ride out of the city, away from the grind and into the Bay Area hills, chasing that visceral, half-forgotten longing for a small pilgrimage back to stillness. Because real connection doesn’t happen on a screen.

Up there, above the noise, the Opal Gray helmets became a kind of safe haven – a quiet frame between motion and rest.
