Thought I'd post a couple things I've been working on. Both for NFG Cycles, Niall the frame builder. First, is a head badge for his frames. First run, still need to polish out the machining passes and fix a few parts of the engraving. It'll get rolled and bolted to the headtube. Second are headtube reinforcers for the frames he's building Wills and I. OOOOOOOO shit!!!! Also, third, the dopest f-ing freak bike ever!!!! Just hosted Tour de Franzia and we built this bike as the race trophy. So much fun, built the whole thing in 2 days. It's three different frames we chopped and I welded together and then I built the custom fork. Then Clay plasma cut the fork sign. Rides so well, just cruisin. So ya there's some stuff I've been doing. Love the blog activity!! Awesome to see everyone active again, get a feel for where you're all at. Be well bretheren, take care, and keep it moving.

so fucking ill my friend. really really impressive. Who won though?!?!
ReplyDeletei hope it was you cause i really want to ride that thing.
PS. im coming to tour de franzia next year.
My good friend jide won. He was so sloppy and did the race twice cause there was a false start. So the bike is available. Use those tools yet amigo?
ReplyDeleteSidenote: I didn't race. None if us did. Can't race your own race, it was for the people. Next we're having the Gyro de Beero, much smaller, for bike people who want to race, have a bike polo tournament, and then party. Everyone reading this is invited to participate!!! I'll give a date when we've figured it out.
ReplyDeleteGood stuff, psyced to see some of your work, it looks like your really finding your way.
ReplyDeletefreak bike!
ReplyDeleteHahahaa...Giro de Beero. That is hilarious. That bike is pretty ridiculous, but the engraving on the head badge is fucking serious dude. I love that, nice work. The Tour de Franzia here is not a bike race, its more like a scavenger hunt...kinda wack right? Anyway, keep up the good work.
