The Ride

Daniel and Dominic Howes, two brothers with a deep passion for cycling, are cofounders of Revel Cycles. The shop carries a special legacy for these two Sebastopol natives, as their great-great-grandfather, Jesse Edwards founded Edwards and Crist over a century ago—a renowned bicycle and motorcycle company that once had shops in major cities like Chicago, Philadelphia, New York, and Minneapolis. In the 1920's, they were considered by many to be the largest bicycle retailer in the world. With this rich family history in the industry, Dominic and Daniel are proud to continue the tradition, blending classic craftsmanship with modern-day cycling culture.

As head mechanic, Daniel brings over 25 years of experience in the bike industry, offering expert-level repair and service for bikes of any variety.
