It's a new year baby!

OK, resolution time. In the past, I've typically posted every 3rd or 4th bike here and it keeps coming back to bite me. Several times recently I've mentioned something I've built, the person asks me for a pic and all I can say is , "Ummm, didn't take any." Like the adjustable rake fork that just went to MA...doh!
So, the resolution? Try to overcome my dislike for self promotion and post everything!
Get ready, this is gonna be like a real blog!

Here's one that went to (cue Beastie Boys), Brooklyn....BROOKLYN over the holidays.
Not a mountain bike, a fixed gear specific 26"wheeled bulldozer!



Signature fork.


Handcut dropouts with stainless faces.


Oops, double pic for ya.....no charge!



I loved this bike, but just like the last few, it's too small for me to keep.

  2. I love the rear dropouts!! The mix of the stainless face with the painted surface looks sick.

  4. Sweet bike. I dig 26"-wheeled bikes. Nice fork crown too. Very lovely. My buddy made a similar style for my daughter's bike.
