By the time the festival rolls around in April, many of the biggest brands have already announced their latest bikes and components for the year. So, in order to stand out, brands both big and small need to go big, or weird, or some combination of the two. And this year, all of the above was on display. Here are some of the most interesting and surprising products we saw at Sea Otter 2025.

Don’t ride wet trails. That’s good general advice, but that’s not to say we’ll never ride in the rain. Maybe you live in a wet location like the Pacific Northwest or the UK, and some of your trails are designed for wet-weather riding. Or maybe you’re sending private trails at a bike park like Windrock. Maybe you’re out on a big ride and a storm pops up. In any of these situations, a quality pair of waterproof bike pants is a nice item to have.
