Headed for the trails of New York and the East Coast.  This is a titanium SS 29er with 1×10 gearing option, a rigid fork and full suspension fork too. Industry Nine wheels, Paragon rocker dropouts, Eriksen Ti post, Schwalbe Nobby Nic’s, a little bit of FSA, tiny bits of Chris King. Ready to ride tubeless.

Nic’s bike needed a bit of an update. Here’s the latest reincarnation.

Fresh from the shop is Glenn’s single speed 29er mountain bike in custom Eatmore Sprouts colours . Featuring Paragon rocker dropouts and curvy tubes. Look for it out and about on the trails of Vancouver Island.

This is our friend Neil (Nunu).  He was one of the first to believe in Sam’s ability to design and create bicycles, and our ability to run a bicycle company.  Neil has the very first bike that Sam ever made. This was back when our company was called Forte! Human Powered Machinery. The amount of bikes coming out of the shop that year could be counted on both hands.  The year was 1998

Nunu sent us the second bike he got off us  (#7) to get updated and retrofitted before he heads off to Brussels, Belgium.  So happy to do this for Neil!

YES!! One of our Single Speed Steel 29er mountain bikes was reviewed by Dirt Rag.  It’s in their latest issue (April 2012, #162).  Very nice review.  The bike was shipped out late fall and ridden over the winter.  ALSO, this bike picked up a Best Mountain Bike award at the NAHBS  in Sacramento this year.
