Our 227th Collective Reward comes from PAUL Component Engineering in Chico, California—many thanks to the good folks at PAUL for supporting bikepacking and independent media in a time when we need it most. I find this particular giveaway to be a special one as it involves two of my all-time favorite components that I’ve put a ton of miles on during some life-altering trips: one lucky member will take home a brand-new pair of PAUL Klamper brakes and a pair of Love or Canti Levers in the color/finish of their choosing.

Beyond their aesthetically-pleasing form factor, there are a lot of reasons why Klampers are a favorite mechanical disc brake among our team and the broader bike touring community. Plainly put, they’re built for the long haul. I personally put some 10,000 miles on a pair while cycling around Uganda, Spain, Morocco, the US, and beyond. Better yet, they’re still in perfect working order, which proves their worth as a solid choice for multi-month trips.

Available in short- or long-pull and in post or flat mount, Klampers are simple to maintain, and the large, sprocket-style adjuster dials make pad setup and tuning a breeze. They also use widely available Avid Elixir–type pads, so replacements are fairly easy to find—another reason they’re a smart long-term/long-ride investment.

One lucky member of the Bikepacking Collective will win this lifetime-worthy combo—a pair of Klampers plus your choice of Love or Canti Levers—free. We’ll draw winners for this and dozens of other Collective Rewards shortly after the October 17 deadline.
