Two New Zealand brands, united by high performance and coffee.

SL.OW Coffee was born during two-time Olympian Sam Dakin’s journey. Sam has a longstanding connection to us here at Velobike, this collaboration celebrates a shared pursuit of speed and an appreciation for taking things SL.OW.

Using SL.OW’s Studio Blend combining Brazilian and Colombian beans with notes of hazelnut, caramel and milk chocolate. Smooth, sweet and easy to drink, it’s the perfect start to race day or your everyday routine.
