Superb Vivace: Official Pre-Order

Jason — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 04:12:46 +0000

As promised we just opened up the pre-order on the Superb Vivace Framesets. We made a few tweaks to the prototype and are ready to start production after a short pre-order period. We decided to go with a higher end tubeset in the form of Italian Columbus Zona, but kept the retail price under $1000. All pre-orders get an introductory price of $899, with the standard retail price being $999. $300 down secures you a frame in your size and color choice. The frame will be available in 3 different colors, but we are offering a choice of 8 different colors to pre-orders only. Act soon, pre-orders end Feb 25th. Check out more information on the pre-order page, and the mocked up color options below.
Racing Red
Outer Space Black
Arctic Blue
Deep Forest Green
Vintage Orange
Sea Green
Midnight Blue
Superb Purple

Superb Vivace: Studio Shots

Jason — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 21:17:01 +0000

Here we have the Superb Vivace lugged Columbus Track frame built up and ready to go. This is the prototype frame we first showed photos of a few months ago. We are ironing out a few last tweaks before we do the first production run. In the mean time we have been putting in some miles on this beauty and loving every second of it! If you want to get your hands on one of first frames shoot us an email to inquire about the pre-order. Pre-ordered Vivace frames can come in your choice of paint color!

Superb Sprint: in the Studio with Jesse Weiner

Jason — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 17:07:57 +0000

A few weeks ago we took our Superb Sprint Prototype over to Jesse Weiner’s Boston Studio for some glamor shots. We couldn’t be more happy with how the prototype has turned out and we are collectively holding our breath for the upcoming release of the production model. Until then hopefully these beautiful shots can wet your appetite. Big thanks to Jesse for taking these great shots!

Superb Marcato: Road frame Prototype

Jason — Thu, 22 Sep 2011 15:56:16 +0000

A few weeks back we released the first images and information on our upcoming track and single speed frames. Today we are releasing our prototype road frame, the Superb Marcato. The road frame goes hand in hand with our track frame, the Superb Vivace. It utilizes brazed lug construction with Columbus Chromoly Steel. The frame comes with a flat lugged crown fork and stainless steel dropouts for years of worry free use. We also chrome plated the entire frame before painting it to also aid in rust prevention. We love zipping around town on fixed gear bikes but we also love getting out of the city on longer distance rides and therefore couldn’t help ourselves from building a beautiful classic road frame.

We had a great photo shoot with our freshly built Superb Vivace a few nights ago on Beacon Street about a block from our shop. This is just a teaser of how great this bike looks built up, full on bicycle porn studio shots on the way.

Superb Sprint Build

Jason — Mon, 12 Sep 2011 17:54:07 +0000

We finished building up the Superb Sprint Prototype and have been busy railing it around town to put it through its paces. We are really psyched on how fast this bike is and how nimble it is in traffic. We built it up with Campagnolo Cranks, Hatta headset, Cinelli bar and stem, Velocity Aero Rims with Superb Hubs, and topped it off with a Superb Prototype Saddle.
