A black and white icon of a mountain landscape with a winding river, a hammer striking an anvil with sparks, and a backdrop of mountains.
Text that reads 'Forged in the wild, built to last' in bold, outlined letters on a black background.

Our Flagship:

The word KAROOAK in blue outlined letters with a black drop shadow on a white background.

“Born in the rugged heart of the Karoo. Forged for South Africa's toughest roads.”

Various vehicles with bicycle racks loaded with bikes and outdoor gear, parked outdoors near mountains and in a driveway.
  • Up to 100 kg across 2/4/6-bike versions

  • Load in under 15 seconds per bike

  • Full rear access with drop-back system

  • Zero frame damage – tyres only contact

  • Rock-solid on brutal gravel & corrugations

  • No plastic parts, no melted tyres from exhaust

“Innovation in the Karoo, manufacturing in George and Cape Town.”

A small town with white buildings, including a church with a steeple, surrounded by trees and mountains in the background during sunset.

During the last decade in the remote Karoo wilderness — far from any commercial hub — we ran Gravel World Series races and multi-day tours that threw every mechanical and engineering challenge our way.

That isolation forged self-reliance, sparked relentless innovation, and taught us exactly what "robust, simple, and reliable" truly means in a product.

Today at WildForged, we craft innovative carbon steel and stainless steel gear that solves real outdoor challenges.

Tough. Smart. Ready for the wild.

Why choose WildForged products?

A shield with the text "Born from Real Adventure" and an icon of a hiking trail through mountains.

After a decade of adventures, support of others on Gravel World Series races and multi-day tours in the wild, the continuous exposure to mechanical and engineering challenges, entrenches a distinct sense of what will work and how to design and fabricate it.

A shield-shaped graphic with a teal background, an orange outline, and the words 'Practical Innovation' written in light blue. There is a black and white icon at the bottom of a mountain landscape with a tool cutting through the ground, releasing sparks.

A solutioning mindset, practical capability, advanced knowledge of available materials, expert CAD skills, extensive use of AI for engineering and exposure to CNC machinery is baked in.

Add to this a team with natural curiousity, continuously exposed to challenges and a desire to solve problems others ignore.

A shield-shaped logo with the words 'Built Tough' in the center. Below, there is a graphic of a mountain, a river, and a hammer striking an anvil, symbolizing durability and ruggedness.

Products manufactured from carbon steel & stainless steel. No breakable plastics.

Where durability is in question, it never hurts to over-engineer a little.

Tough enough to survive heavy use in outdoor situations.

A blue shield-shaped emblem with an orange border, displaying the phrase 'NO COMPROMISES' and a black and white mountain and river icon with a hammer striking a road flare.

“Out there, when something breaks at the worst possible time, you don’t curse the price—you curse the corner that was cut to save costs.

You’d gladly have paid more for peace of mind. Durability. Load safety. Reliability. That’s what we refuse to compromise on.”
