The new bike

The new bike

All 65cm of it.

This damn thing has been a process, but Mark Bixby and Ben Barry were patient and supportive. I’ve learned a TON about bikes, and now I finally get to ride the thing. So far I’ve only been able to ride it around the hood briefly, but I already love it.

Supah clean! Love the setup. I’m riding a fixed Peugeot, too.

Thanks! I found the frame at a bike shop in Santa Cruz and after a few friends persuading me to build it I couldn’t resist. It’s not easy to find a frame this big, trust me, I’ve looked.

I didn’t even know Peugeot made bikes. I still need to build a single gear bike, and now I have more inspiration.
