Update:
The New owners of 333fab.Com have asked me to make this statement:
I am not interested in getting the 333fab.com back. They offered to sell it back to me and I declined.
Secondly, they are not using Max's logos/content in anyway whatsoever. The website now has a new owner and it's not related to us in anyway.
Also, there are no disputes/claims regarding anything between us and them.
Fun times, people.
Please don't make any negative comments about them here as it could cause problems. I wanted them to stop using Max's logo and they have.
I'd like to try to stay positive and loving in this sacred space for Max. - Tarrell
Max's last frame is safely in the hands of his very patient Mondrian-loving customer. Thanks to @sycipdesigns and @bernardgeorges69 for helping get everything together.
Max was truly honored that the Bicycling Museum agreed to accept one of his bikes into thier permanent collection. He called this one the Cascade Allroad Rambler. He rode it on our honeymoon tour, in cross races and more. Today Bernard and I delivered the bike. Joe Breeze and Otis Guy welcomed it into the museum. It will be displayed with all of Max's heros of Bicycle fabrication. Max is smiling.

The best way we can celebrate the life and legacy of Max Kullaway is to all join together for a ride... and that's exactly what we're gonna do. Clear your calendar the evening of Sunday, August 29th as we gather for a social ride starting from Gas Works Park in Seattle.
We'll end the ride at Brouwer's in Fremont, please stay for a beer and a bite if you'd like. It'll be a great time to share stories of Max and celebrate the impact he's had on us and the community. Brouwer's are being incredibly generous and are closing early to the public for us, so be cool and be respectful.
// Bring your 333's!
Max has a lot of beautiful creations and we want to see them all. This will likely be the biggest collection of 333fab's ever assembled so if you have one, be sure to ride it.
// The route
The route will be simple, flat and socially paced. Starting from Lake View Point just South of the old refinery in Gas Works Park, we'll head West on a combination of roads and trail to Golden Gardens. From there we'll turn around and head back to Brouwer's.
// The schedule:
- 4:30pm / Meet at Gas Works Park at the Lake View Point just South of the old refinery.
- 4:45pm / Start social-paced roll West towards Golden Gardens
- 6:00pm / Meet back at Brouwer's for food, drink and memories
- 7:30pm / Last call for the kitchen at Brouwer's
We are going to hold to this schedule as best we can to ensure we are respectful of the generosity of Brouwer's staying open later for us. If you miss the start you can just head out West on the Burke Gilman and catch on.
// Brouwer's details:
- Be vaccinated and bring masks, please. Brouwer's is requiring masks regardless of vaccination status for anyone not seated at their table.
- Bring a lock! If you are joining us at Brouwer's be sure to bring a lock so you can park your bike outside securely. There's only one bike rack out front, so prepare to lock up to a friend.
- Brouwer's is a 21+ establishment, while minors are more than welcome to join us on the ride they unfortunately can’t join inside Brouwer's .
- We'll be showing up all at once, and service could take a while, be patient, be kind, be generous, be like Max.
Sad news: after 3 years of battling cancer Max is in hospice. I know that building bikes for all of you was one of his greatest joys in life. Find updates on Caring Bridge if you search for Maxwell Kullaway. There is also a GoFundMe called “support for max and tarrell kullaway”.

I’m so happy to be finishing up this new ‘All-Road’ Ti frame after months of health related delays. Next stop is paint for this one…

Finally got some pix of Tarrell’s new Ti road bike in the front yard before it loses its new bike sheen. I got the feedback I was looking for after a few rides and the bike fits perfectly, handles intuitively, and has gearing that works for her in the hills all around us in Marin County. #333fab #custombicycle #madeinmarin
