Greetings gents. It has been awhile since I have shared a bicycle here so apologies. A new bike shop just opened up here in Claremont, California, my hometown. Well so I went by and chatted with the tow young guys who own the place and signed their guest book as a courtesy. So last week I get...

Haven't posted in a while largely because I did not have much to report. However I just bought this frame from some really large Ebay retailer here in the US (and a RB member I believe) Anyway I am pretty excited about this build - its going to be more of a rider than strictly period correct...

Touring Tandem, with a very nice selection of kit: Phil Wood hubs with Phil disc brakes front and back; TA Cyclotourist tandem cranks; Campagnolo...

Okay so we don't actually have skips here in SoCal, this thing came out of a dumpster near where I work. It looks like a 96 ( or 97) GT RTS-1. Not sure I would put much effort into restoring ti but highlights include a Chris King headset, Race Face cranks and XT drive train. Powertools stem and...

Nice Magnum Opus but watch our for the "special" service.

Can't quite place it and now it is driving me crazy...

Campagnolo crankset from 1958, the first generation of the aluminum Record crank and a rare bird particularly with the correct pedals. Took these in on trade for my labor this past month and needless to say I was pretty happy about the trade. However on further inspection there are a couple of...

As stated above, I am about to cable a GT Groove Tube bike for the first time and am looking for tips. I have some photos that show various approaches so just curious what works best. Which side of the head tube do you run the rear brake? Also I assume that the rear derailleur goes on the far...

On a trip through the southwest visiting an old friend and several national parks, we made a detour to Moab for a morning ride on Slickrock. I had looked at some trail videos online but remained pretty unclear about what the actual experience was going to be like. Undeterred I chose to do the 10...

My riding buddy john shocked me the other day with the announcement that he had bought a new bike and was planning on selling the Ritchey P-21 he has been riding since about 1995. I tried to talk him out of selling but in the end just could not let it go to some stranger on Ebay so I...
