As a helicopter pilot Scott was looking for a vintage bike with performance. We started with a Peugeot Competition that featured Reynolds 531 frame and Mavic wheels. Added Campy Veloce brakes for sure stopping power and a rare Shimano Sport LX rear derailleur that featured machined chain wheels spinning on ball bearings for sure quick shifting. We stopped short of adding wings.
At 6"3" and the mass to fill out his frame Dominic needed a bike that could carry the load. Starting with a 68CM Nishiki 12 speed, traded out the stock wheels for 40 spoke Super Champion rims laced to Bulls Eye cartridge bearing hubs for maxium strength. With the addition of a Brooks B17 saddle and rear rack Dom is ready to commute.
Justin was looking for a unique bike. We started with a Schwinn Voyaguer 11.8 in solid chrome. Added Nitto 44CM noodle handle bars, a longer stem to get the bars higher,Cane Creek aero brake levers, natural cork bar tape, Brooks Flyer honey saddle, Rivendell Grip King pedals, Out your back door military surplus sead bag, and a unique tail light that mounts to a fender brase on.

Plenty of inventory, over 100 bikes available for restoration

A resent inquiry wanted to know if I had any bikes left. Forgive me for not being clear. While I only have 3 ready for pick up I have plenty available for restoration. With the summer season in full swing most customers have been pre ordering their bikes so they have not shown up here for sale. James is a systems engineer, lives 1 mile from work and does not own a car. He was looking for his 2nd bicycle and wanted to try the Fixed Gear experience. The solution is a 63CM Astr0Diamler lugged Reynolds 531 frame, Formula hubs, Alex rims. Give me a call and see what we can come up with for you. 502-552-5669
