You would think it would be unlikely to break a 50 year old 80lb vise, but our mechanic Tom managed to do just that. During a not so uncommon fight with a pedal that had become seized in a nice old pair of stronglight cranks Tom managed to crack the vise through the solid forged steel rendering it almost entirely useless. Well I guess it’s time had come and with the new year came a new vise, and nothing is better in a repair shop than fresh new tools! Time to put it to work!

Just in case you were wondering we are open our regular Sunday hours today 12pm-6pm, so come by and visit when you get sick of your family, and bring us some Easter Candy!

If you had one of these you could even bring by the Easter Bunny!



Ton’s more on Mike Joos’ page, sooo good!
Hey Blogosphere!
If you’ve been into the shop over the past week or so you may have noticed a blonde freckly addition to the staff. That would be me, Steph. I’m psyched to be part of the Superb crew.

(Standing outside of Superb with Craig and Wei Wei on a nostalgically warmer day. Darn you, New England winter!)
Since I’ll be contributing to the blog I thought I’d make a formal pixelated introduction.
I’m an energetic Southern Californian immigrant who relocated to Boston four and a half years ago to study Photojournalism and Art History at Boston University. I discovered bikes approximately two years ago and finally got hooked up with my first big girl track bike from Superb last summer..

(Before you cringe, I promise, I'm not running a brake on B43s anymore I swear I swear I swear.)
I’ll be doing a lot of the site photographs from here on out, so check back frequently to see all sorts of new product and buildup shots and array of other social media.
