Superb Custom Build: Dave’s Fuji

Steph — Sun, 12 Jun 2011 17:19:09 +0000

While most of our custom builds are constructed in the shop, one of our customers has chosen to customize his bike over an extended period of time.

Meet Dave.

Dave has been coming into our shop since it opened. Over the two years, he’s accumulated quite the assortment of components from us.

Fuji track pro, Thomson stem and seat post, neon green Aerospoke, Superb Chain ring, Velocity Polka Dot Deep V (with a purple Phil Wood hub mind you)…needless to say, Dave’s bike is probably one of the most noticeable and unique bikes cruising around Boston, which is precisely what he was going for.

Detail of the Thomson stem.

What’s next for Dave’s unorthodox build, you ask?

A coaster brake. No, we’re not kidding. Stay tuned for more pictures of this bicycle’s metamorphosis!!

This weekend local photographer Eric Baumann stopped by to take some portraits of the Superb Bicycle Employees. The resulting images came out beautifully to say the least and will eventually make it up onto an employee area of the website. Until then I am posting them here.
