Neil’s bike is now built and shipped. He should have it soon.
This is one of the last bikes I’ll be building with Merlin made frames and forks.
Merlin informed us, after we had placed an order for more frame sets with them, that they wont be able to build for us anymore. They wont be […]
Phil’s bike has been stolen. If you see it or any parts from it please contact me.
Pictures of the bike here.
Here is a bike that just shipped. It’s the stock 24″ (effective top tube) size.
The pictures are from emails I sent to the owner. He went with a few extra wheels for different terrain. All of them are big.
Some of the pictures have measurements shown to confirm fit and help with stem sizing. It’s […]
I recently finished this bike.
It’s built up as a 12 speed with my modified XTR 6 speed cassette (13,15,17,20,23,26). This one is modified for the DT Swiss single speed hub.
This is the same gearing I have on my bike now, I really like it. The lowest gear is 22-26 and the fastest is 32-13. […]
dRjOn has been riding his new bike. He talks about it in his blog here.

I’ll bring a bike for me to ride and a couple of others. Stop by the bus and check them out.
Each day of riding […]
I just finished Phil’s bike.
Two wheels to chose from for the front.
Zip tie cable routing is functional and completely removable. The bike will be mostly ridden as a single speed. Here it is set up with the 6 speed drive train.
First there was only the Paul Whub to chose from for my wide forks. Now Phil Wood is also making a 135mm front hub with wide and equal flange spacing.
It has very large flanges, 84.5mm.
Wheel strength and stiffness is greatly improved with the wide and equal flange spacing. I don’t think I will ever […]
Jeff Boatman finished the bags for his steel Jones and sent me these pictures.
I’ll also be at Race Pace Bicycles in Ellicott City, Maryland on Sunday June 28th. The Event starts at 2pm and is followed by a ride at 4pm.
