The fleet ready to set sail

Here's the first ten frames for the VOS road team. The second batch should go to paint next week. Headsets are here and forks will arrive soon. It's going to be a sight, all these matching frames showing up at the races with all these fast guys on 'em.

Muddy waters

For those of us waiting for a muddy race our wishes were granted in a big way at the Peak Season final at Watsonville fairgrounds. I didn't shoot many pictures and I don't have all the results but I do know the following: Stella scored win # 5 and equalled Josh Snead in total season victories, Dean Poshard rode to second place on the day and first in the series,TimWatson won the 35 + A series, Julie Brothers got second on the day, Tom Sullivan, Frank Kalcic and Ben Dodge all raced strong in the raging downpour that flooded the course for most of the day. We were also treated to a rare appearence by Rob Evans on his single speed . Future team rider Scott Chapin captured the overall in the A Single speed group. Another victory was had by Max Fraser in the junior 16-17 field. Max is a world class sailboat racer and has little time to train or race 'cross but when he does he makes it count. Check cyclocross.cx for all the results and standings.

More progress

Next week some of these will actually leave the shop as completed eady to assemble frames.It has been a monumental amount of work but the fruits of this labor are almost ready.

team carbon in glueup stage

Yes, Kris...this is your frame !

slant six bike

This bike was built with a pacenti slant-six lugset and a reynolds carbon fork painted to look as if it were a crowned fork.

The headbadge was supplied by the customer and was made as a tribute to a riding buddy who had been killed by a car.

If you can find a cuter bike let me know.....

More progress

These frames ain't quite ready to rock but in a few more days.....
