Go Grava Bicycles Becomes a Boyd Cycling Podium Dealer
At Go Grava Bicycles we are careful about the brands we bring into the shop. There are thousands of products in the cycling industry, but we only work with companies building equipment we would personally ride and recommend.
After nearly two years of conversations, Go Grava Bicycles is now officially a Boyd Cycling Podium Dealer. This also means we are currently the only Boyd dealer in our region.
For riders in Reading, Wyomissing, and the Berks County cycling community, this means access to one of the most interesting wheel manufacturers currently operating in the United States.

Why Go Grava Chose Boyd Cycling
Boyd Cycling is a rider-driven company based in Greenville, South Carolina founded by Boyd and Nicole Johnson.
The brand built its reputation by creating high-performance wheels without the inflated pricing typically seen in large global wheel brands.
At Go Grava we spent time getting to know the company before committing. We wanted to understand the engineering, the product direction, and the long-term vision for the company.
The more we learned, the more Boyd aligned with the type of partner we want to work with.
Boyd’s Move Toward U.S. Manufacturing
One of the most interesting developments from Boyd Cycling is their decision to bring rim manufacturing back to the United States.
Boyd now produces alloy rims in South Carolina, giving them tighter quality control and more stable supply chains.
For riders this means stronger quality oversight and a more resilient manufacturing pipeline compared to brands that rely entirely on overseas production.
The Boyd Wheels We're Most Excited About
Pennsylvania riding terrain includes everything from rough gravel to fast road rides and technical mountain bike trails. These Boyd wheels immediately stood out as great options for riders in our area.

Not all gravel rides are smooth. The Reiver is built for rough terrain — washed-out roads, chunky descents, and forest trails that feel more like 90s mountain biking.

Many riders ask what upgrade will actually change their bike the most.
In most cases the answer is wheels.
Better wheels improve acceleration, climbing efficiency, ride feel, and handling. Unlike many upgrades, wheels can move with you from bike to bike over time.
