Introducing the Luminary Collection from Swift Industries — the brand’s debut print celebrating an incredible 18-year journey.
The tonal colours and layered design capture that universal vastness that pulls us outdoors — the feeling of space, movement, and connection to nature.
Built with Swift’s exclusive SI600X high-performance 600D recycled polyester, this collection isn’t just about looks:
✔ Waterproof backing
✔ Diamond-shaped fiber grid for exceptional structure & durability
✔ Brushed finish for a timeless texture on a technically advanced fabric
In Stock Now at Rock City Cycles:
✨ Zeitgeist Pack (12L)
A roomy, rugged bag that mounts to your handlebars or saddle — perfect for big day rides, overnighters, or everyday adventure.
✨ Catalyst Pack (7.5L)
Compact and sturdy, designed to attach to your bars or saddle for streamlined carrying power.
Limited quantities available — drop by the shop or contact us to grab yours before they’re gone.

❤️ THANK YOU, NANAIMO! ❤️
We are absolutely blown away by the response to this year’s donation drive. Thanks to your generosity, we more than doubled the number of bike donations from last year, and the toy drive was a huge success 🎉
Seeing this community come together to give back is exactly why we love what we do. Working alongside The Great Nanaimo Toy Drive and BGC Central Vancouver Island was incredibly inspiring, and it already has us thinking about how we can make next year’s program even bigger and better.
The $500 Rock City Cycles gift card winner has been drawn and notified!
From all of us at Rock City Cycles — thank you for making such a meaningful impact. This wouldn’t be possible without you 🙌

What. A. Day. 💥
Huge thanks to everyone who came out for the Cross On The Rock Muc-Off Cup on Monday! The vibes were high, the racing was tight, and the conditions did not disappoint. 😎
Big love to all the volunteers who made it happen — from the early birds staking and taping the course to everyone who stuck around to help with clean-up after the last lap. Couldn’t do it without you. 🙌
And of course, special thanks to Pete and the Muc-Off crew for their awesome support (and for keeping everyone’s bikes running smooth all day).
Thanks for making this year’s race such a blast. See you at the next one! 🏁
