Winter 2021







 I’ve been working slower than ever (obviously). Still haven’t caught up to the point of making more stock bars. I’ve got two or three frames on the list, then I’ll be making some 3”s, 3.75”s and more 4.25”s 







I got a Sur Ron to mess around in the new yard (29 acres) and national forest. These are places a lot closer than the bike trails so I can hit them after work (in a few months anyways, it’s currently dead, wet winter time). I’ll be building my own private trails, slope style course and maybe a little skatepark when it dries out/warms up.

This thing moves like I’ve always wanted. It’s fast enough to kill you, and it’s quiet enough to ride in suburban areas that are not dirt bike friendly. I’m pretty sure it’s a faster bike in the tight national forest trails than any full sized gas bike. I’m looking forward to building some 40-50 footers in the woods! Here is little video of my favorite creek side trail:

Techmology

Jason’s frame is ready to go





The one below (without the seat stay gussets) is Brian’s new frame. His has flattened chainstays just because they look cool

One of the random parts that I designed and made this week on a rapid printer at the factory job: Golf cart toggle switch cover to prevent the light switches from being inadvertently flipped on from a pant leg. 
A new tapered head tube type that I intend to use, once I find the reamer for a 52 mm drop-in headset


I think computers got as good as they’ll ever get... like ten years ago. One of my computers went out_ Actually, I kicked the printer which knocked the computer over. But it’s fixable. We have the techmology. In case you were wondering why I haven’t posted here in a while.

Pleased to get Cody on one of my 26"s. I'm trying to have the other 3 frames done in the next few weeks. Bars are in progress, as are Machines
Billy's bars are ready to go.




Finger smudges aside, I think its a good looking frame. That SS gusset does wonders for lateral stiffness/frame invincibility
I got one of the 4" coated. Three others in que
There are many amazing street spots within earshot of this wallride. And no one has ever told me to scram. Huntsville TX
