Episode 159 - Alex Howes in the House

What up party people. Boy do we have a good one for y’all this week. Our guest, Alex Howes, has been a long time coming. To be honest, I’m surprised we waited 159 episodes to finally get Howes in the house because he’s just got one of those personalities that meshes perfectly with the vibe of the show. Anyway, tune in for some big announcements and hot takes.

If you have any questions or feedback for the show you can drop us a note at [email protected] or hit up the Bonk Bros instagram page (@bonkbros @dylanjawnson @adamsaban6 @tylerclouti @raddaddizzle @scottmcgilljr). 

If you want to support the podcast while also gifting yourself a little some some in the process, you can pick up some of amazing products from any (or all) of our loyal partners and be sure that you’re getting the best of the best because we only work with the best of the best. 

You can pick up basically anything you could possibly want bike-accessory wise from our friends at Bike Tires Direct. I just mounted up some new Vittoria Barzos on my Santa Cruz Blur for a little extra traction since I’ll be ripping trails for the next week in Crested Butte and I gotta say, I’ve been pretty impressed so far. Check out tires from Vittoria and countless other brands over at biketiresdirect.com and use the code “bonkbros” at checkout.

Bolt Skin + Shave. Ah yes, the silky smooth gift of the most advanced leg shaving experience money can buy (for guys who shave their legs at least). Bolt is more than just a razor company, they’re also a skin care company with all kinds of skin accessories to improve the quality of your post-shave skin. Head over to boltshave.com today and use the code “BROS15” at checkout.

For all bike maintenance and marginal gains needs head over to Silca.cc and use the code “Bonkbrosjuly2025” at checkout for a sweet little discount. If you’re tuning into the Tour this weekend you’ll see our teammates over at Visma using the full suite of Silca products so if you don’t want to take our word for what to get, just go ahead and pick up whatever Visma is using because they probably know second best.

We pulled Alex into the Bicycle Accident Law trivia on the show today and as expected, he brought the heat. These segments are fun because they’re both informative and entertaining. Not only is Bicycle Accident Law with you on every ride and ready to help you when you need it, they also want to ensure your return to the bike is as seamless as possible. To back that claim up, if any of our listeners do find themselves needing legal services, Scarborough Bicycle Accident Law will pay for 2 months of coaching through Ignition Coach Co when you’re ready to return to the bike. 

And last but not least this week is definitely a brand you’ll be seeing plenty of over the next few weeks at the Tour. That’s right, our trustworthy homies over at KetoneAid are doing ketone supplementation right so if you want to get your hands (or mouth) on that same liquid gold as all the fast bois at the Tour then click the link in the show notes to get you some today. 

Alright that’s enough business for today, let’s get this party started!
