Zodiac, Med, Matte Black/Illusion Green

Next up in our featured bike blog posts is a frame-only headed out to Steve in Connecticut. He picked a Matte Black swingarm paired with Illusion green for the front triangle. And to cap it all, he picked gold decals! Fantasic combo, if you ask me. Three of the 5 frames built were frame-only orders, …

Tanooki bikepacker, S, yellow

Hannah has been telling me she wants a Myth for years now, so when she decided to pull the trigger, I was pretty excited. I know that she has a tendency to go on trips of epic proportions, whether it's on foot, ski, or otherwise, so the Tanooki bikepacker seemed like a perfect fit. It …

Custom 27.5″ Mini shredder

A few months ago, my old friend Jayme called me up out of the blue and said she wanted a Myth. Years ago, she was one of my consistent riding buddies when I was getting into mountain biking. Back then, I was on a Barracuda frame with a Manitou elastomer fork, and she had a …

Full custom bikepacking rig for Denver

Denver's full custom bikepacking hardtail turned out really great, and we can't wait to see where he takes it! It's set up as a singlespeed with sliding dropouts, forward geometry with a 130mm fork, and it's got mounts galore for cages and accessory bags, as well as a rear rack. We bent the downtube and …

Custom Gravel Adventure tandem!

I don't build a lot of tandems, but when I do, I always feel so honored that my customers chose me to build it. So when David and Sam described what they wanted, I was so excited to get started on the project. In short, they wanted an adventure vehicle. Tandems are pretty much always …

Project Z, medium prototype

To say I've put a lot of work and hours into this project doesn't even begin to scratch the surface of the truth. And the reality is, I'm excited about it, because this bike has shown more promise than I ever could have hoped. I've gone over the design more times than I could ever …

Talos, Sliders, Iris Burgundy

This nice Talos frame just left the shop. It's a size M/L with the Slider dropout upgrade and a gorgeous Iris Burgundy powder coat. I love this color! Henry isn't planning on running a dropper on this frame, and wanted a second set of bottle bosses on the seat tube. So we added them, and …

Full custom Klunker hardtail

When John told me he was pulling the trigger on a custom bike, I knew from the start it was going to be special. Every time he's asked me about features or things I could do to a bike, it was something unique and special. So I knew this build would incorporate at least a …

Full Custom, long travel hardtail, Red

This week I'm posting up pictures of Chris' bike. This was a really awesome build, and I'm really happy how it came out. Chris basically wanted something similar to the Slaypnir, but with custom fit geometry. We came up with a great balance of fit and aggressive riding stance, and I think it's going to …

Ambrosia, 57, Custom artwork and paint

This is a pretty special bike, because it represents so many things that have just been ideas for so long, but have finally become a reality. This bike is for my friend Sam, and because of various reasons, it's taken us more than a year to work through the project and have a final result. …
