Progress on my cross frame
Monday, September 24th, 2007
Here are a couple pics of the naked frame before it gets sand blasted and painted. The fork going on it is a Ritchey WCS carbon cyclocross fork which should arrive later this week. In the meantime, I’ll be designing a very small ladies step through frame for our friend Michelle. I’ll upload pictures as it comes together.
Repaints, repairs, and my cross frame
Thursday, September 20th, 2007
So a couple of bikes have been in the works at the shop including this Witcomb track frame that was in for a repaint. Here are a couple shots of the lugs, crown, and shell which were the most difficult for me to mask.
That Motobecane that was run over by a car is also ready to go. We’re not doing the paint on it so it’s heading out like this.
Jack stopped by the shop to show us his built up Green Jake cross bike. Looks pretty sweet if you ask me. The tubes for my frame are already mitered and in the jig. I brazed it together today and will be uploading more pics this weekend. Hopefully much progress is made.
And lastly, that flatland frame I built for Henry a while back is assembled and ready to ride. He uploaded some pictures to Global-Flat here.
Jack’s completed cross frame

Just finished with jack’s frame this weekend. Here are the latest pictures of it. The complete slideshow can be seen here. My frame is next and then it’s to the races for some R&D.
Things have been chugging along at the shop. It’s September and we’re still not entirely set up. Go figure. Maybe we’ll have an open house someday. Speaking of which, Ant Bike Mike will be having his on October 6th so mark your calendar.
Team cross frame number 3 coming up
