Tony Fast's New 26" Fixed Rig!

Tony stopped by today to show me his new 26" hoops he laced up for his Shop 14 ESB.

He is pretty excited about the change it made to the ride of his bike, lower center of gravity.

He is also sporting the new Profile 36t splined sprocket.

And the NEW Profile fixed hubs! A cleaner more traditional looking fixed hub.

They look pretty sweet, I wonder when they are going to be released? Thanks for the scoop Tony, and the beers!

Shop Shirts

I printed up some new Bicycle Revolutions shirts this week. Just in time for Spring we have a nice grass green shirt with brown ink. American apparel  men's sizes S - XXXL (yes that is triple extra-large). Sorry I had no one to model but Lazlo and he didn't want to get in the shirt, just near it. We have some black shirts as well but these are "limited edition" for Spring 2010.


We also have some shirts for the ladies. Kelly green with either pink or brown printing in sizes small, medium, and large. Pink tank tops with brown ink and some black shirts with green ink that I didn't take a picture of - both of those styles are size medium only for now. Oh and you can't leave out the kids! We have super cute onesies and child size t-shirts with either the shop logo or our extra cute flying trike graphic (thanks Cara for designing that for us!)










You can purchase any of these fantastic items for a mere $20 at the boutique. Representing your local independent bicycle shop is good for your soul so you should probably do that.

Cj's New Charge Scissor Build

This is the first complete Charge Scissor build we have done yet. Cj bought a Surly Steamroller from us just a little while ago and decided to go for a custom fixed gear freestyle machine to celebrate the summer of 2010.

White B-43's Fuzzy-Built to order on gold All-City hubs. White Demolition Medial cranks. Demolition Pivotal Seatpost and Volume Saddle.

Atomlab Pimp lite stem and FUNN 3" risers, FSA threadless headset.

A solid build if I do say so myself. He picked up some new Lockdown straps in the Scissor Colorway.

He looks really happy doesn't he? No, he is frickin' STOKED! Thanks Cj, enjoy the new ride.

My Affinity LoPro V-4.5...

So I might not have time to build my new All-City Dropout just yet. But I swapped some stuff around on my LoPro yesterday just to try something "different".

All of my bikes have become fixed gear cruisers of some sort, my "Old Man Bike" collection has become quite extensive. After riding my Cinelli a couple of weeks ago I was inspired to make my LoPro "Go Fast".

I pulled the wheels off of my Obey, they are much lighter than the 48h B-43's I had on here originally. The Velocity Aero rim is so light, very quick to accelerate, yet solid and predictable. I Installed a pair of Hutchinson Intensive 700x25 tires, durable yet light and fast.

Finished it off with some Syntace Bullhorn handlebars that I had yet to like on any of my bikes so far. Oh yeah, a new set of Eastern pedals with some Lockdown Straps because I am loving them so. I think this is my favorite version of this bike so far.

I might be old, but I will always be young at heart. I really enjoy ripping through the streets, especially when I am all alone. It reminds me of the old days, young and dumb and fast as hell.

"Mark-Matt's" New Dropout!

Finished another Dropout build for "Mark-Matt" today. I have been running behind on the custom builds now that the weather has gotten 10-20 degrees warmer. But I managed to get this one finished right at the end of the day.

It came together really nicely. I am really excited to be getting these bikes out on the streets for spring. It is going to be a fun summer of riding and hanging out with homey's.

I know he is going to be out at Water Street this week, at least he better be!

Look how happy he is, totally worth the crazed bike building session today. Even with the rainy day last minute photos it looks sweet. Hopefully tomorrow I can grab some more outside shots of them together. Thanks Mark!

Drew's New All-City Dropout!

Just finished building up Drew's Dropout. Looking forward to getting some rider feedback about the design.

I got confused and put his chainwheel on the wrong side, oops...

We set him up on the Large and he has tons of pedal clearance.

We managed to squeeze some 700x40's on it.

That is tight! Can't wait to see him riding it next week at Water Street.
