Sometimes damage happens to our bikes that isn't in our control. But, when life gives you lemons, why not make lemonade? That's where we really shine!
This one came to us with a damaged seat stay caused by some poor planning by an airline, but left our shop structurally sound and fully repainted. From red to green, and everything in-between. We can make your sad day into new bike (paint) day! Reach out to find out more

Like most composite NDT inspectors, I’ve always been a little different and like to draw on my diverse background to solve composite mysteries.
Being able to dig into a complex project and hunt down the root cause is where the fun of discovery lives. I've traded the moon shoes and the poodle (still have a poodle) for phased array sensors and material science, but I still approach every project with the same curiosity and care. I wouldn’t want it any other way.
She rode away from everyone. alone. in all white. on Easter Sunday.
Shawn breaks down the exact moment Demi Vollering launched on the Oude Kwaremont and never looked back and honestly the way he describes it gives us chills all over again.
this week on Queen Stage, Shawn Small joined @rosaeltd and @mollyjhurford to recap the Tour of Flanders, while our girl @amrook is out welcoming a new baby into the world 🍼 we miss her but this is a very valid reason to be absent.
The full episode presented by @sramroad is out now. Link in bio.
Paris-Roubaix Femmes is next weekend and we have a lot of feelings about it. Follow so you don’t miss the recap.

Detail photos of Pete’s V2 gravel bike. I built the original for Pete back in 2020 - that bike was designed around 35mm tires, with a 2x groupset. Over the intervening years, Pete rode the sh*t out of his bike, and learnt about the limitations which led us to version 2.
This time we designed around 55mm tires, and went to 1x13 with SRAM’s XPLR groupset. The design shifted to internal brake hoses, with an Enve In-Route fork (with the cargo bosses removed, thanks @ruckuscomp ) and FSA/Vision headset/cockpit. We were able to reuse the crank, wheels and shifters. To continue the aero theme of the bar/stem, the frame has an aero downtube. The seattube is offset forward on the the BB shell to help keep the chainstays short.
The first build was full weight weenie, coming in at 15.3lbs. The bigger rubber and internal-routing considerations increased that a bit, but 18.9lbs is still light for a fat-tire gravel bike.
And then the paint! So much detail - hard to even conceive how @colorworkspalette pulled this off, but it is glorious, even down to updating the accent colors on the wheels and saddle.
