Nunu’s Retrofitted Retro Naked

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.

On our little island of 2500 full time residents, we’ve got a wicked group of dedicated cyclists, that, come rain or shine or hail or snow or sun, are out there riding with the pack. Eamon is one of these. He’s recently taken up bike racing – look out world – you could say “the train has left the station”! Here’s his new Road Adventure. He was already pulling away and kicking some of our butts. Now…..he’s “dancing on the pedals”.
