Nicole’s brand-new winterized VO Piolet custom build just rolled out of the shop the other day. We did the full CB treatment on it, so it naturally got decked out with beautiful SW-Honjo fenders, a SW Nitto rack, full dynamo lighting, a Shimano Alfine internally geared hub, SRAM hydraulic brakes, and a Brooks C19. The IGH was a natural choice on this winterized machine to keep maintenance to the absolute minimum. The trusty Surly Singelator allows for proper chain tension, so there’s no need to worry. All in all, we’re so pleased with the finished product. Thanks, Nicole!

@wicked_kewl picked up his real hunk of a @crustbikes Romeo before the snowfall this weekend! He had us swap out the original Bullmoose setup for this new Towel Rack bar. While we were at it, we opted to go for the Yokozuna Reaction cable system to get the best braking performance out of those @paulcomponent Klampers. Last but not least, we threw on a pair of those brand new @simworksusa @mkspedal Bubbly pedals, which are quickly becoming a shop favorite. Good stuff all around. Thanks for letting us have some fun with your bike, Michael!

Here’s another #employeeprofile for y’all! A lot of you might recognize @nomadpatches aka Spencer, one of our core mechanics around here. He and Sam brought their little one by the shop this morning, so we snapped a few pics of their respective setups and some cute family photos. We love the quick-release @thule child seat (and the cutie strapped in obvi) as well as the assortment of @swiftindustries and @simworksusa gear on these bikes!

Our buddy Nat just picked up his @allcitycycles Macho Man after we did a little make-over on it! Over the summer, we set Nat up with a @sinewavecycles Beacon and some of the beautiful @simworksusa x @honjomudguards for a west-coast excursion. Nat rolled back into town and came back for round-two and got the @simworksusa cockpit treatment and a major braking upgrade via the @paulcomponent Klampers! Nice choices all around. Thanks, Nat!

Today’s employee-bike spotlight shines on @a.d._plus ‘ All-City Super Professional (aka Rosita). Outfitted for whatever the commute or weekend adventure demands. We love how that @surlybikes 8-pack and custom powder-coated @bluelug Wald basket just transform this ride into a highly refined pickup-truck!

#newbikeday doesn’t come around everyday, hence why it’s so special. In this case, #employeerob’s New Bike Day is extra special! He’s been working on this @crustbikes LIGHTNING BOLT since May and now the journey has met it’s end! This boutique build includes all of the fixin’s, including a @sonnabendynamo hub, @whiteind hub, @paulcomponent brakes and QR’s, @reneherse cranks, @ultradynamico rubber, @nitto_handlebar_works cockpit, and the list goes on. We’re so excited for him to finally ride this beauty in the sunset.

If you’ve been around the shop this past season, you might have met Laurel. She’s been a huge help and also a major source of comedic relief. She’s moving on now to go live on an island again, so we wish her well and will miss her! To commemorate her last day, she baked cookies in the shape of bicycle tools like the tri-tool, pedal wrench, chain breaker, and sets of Allen wrenches. Thanks for your hard work this season, Laurel!
