We received this one of a kind purple swift saddle from Brooks as an award for being the best Dealer of Excellence this year! Of course it is in one of our favorite shop colors and we couldn’t be more excited! Of course we had to take some obligatory glamour shots. Stop by and check this lovely saddle out and others in stock.
Michael walked into our shop on a whim and found a frame that he had been seeking for a long period of time: the Celeste Bianchi Super Pista.
Jason helped him brainstorm a beautiful build: Sram omnium crank set, silver Velocity B43s, Velo Orangestem, Izumi silver chain, Thomson seatpost…
Tom mid stem installation on Michael’s dream bike.
This build was finished off with some class that only Brooks products could muster:
Brooks components, all lined up and patiently awaiting installation on Michael’s new bicycle.
Brooks B17 saddle
Brooks bar tape with Brooks cork bar end caps as an extra special finishing touch.
Michael after his first cruise around the block and rearing to ride it some more.
Glad you’re psyched Michael! See you on the road!
We just finished another Superb Custom for Dave. He wanted to keep it classy so black and chrome was used throughout, highlights include a chrome Tange fork, Miche Supertype seatpost, FSA Giomondi Cranks, Brooks Swift Saddle, Nitto Dynamic Stem, Nitto B123 handlbar, and Paul high polish e-lever.

Here is another Pake Build for Addison, this one with a Brooks B17 saddle and one of our last pairs of Hold Fast Straps. Sadly we will be in a Hold Fast drought for a month as they can’t currently keep up with the popularity of the straps. We did just get another shipment of Pake frames in so if you have been thinking about building one up now is a great time.
