New stuff



So I've been working a lot on some new projects this summer and they are very close to fruition. I don't want to promise more than I have until I gots the goods but I will say that I'm millimeters away (literally and figuratively) from offering things that folks have been asking for since I started producing. And I've only waited so long because I wanted to do it right. And I'm doing it right. Here's a couple pics of some recent custom jobs to whet appetites for now.

Now with 100% more Rando



So I guess Gideon is my official test pilot now. He got the first Pret a Porteur (which he punishes daily at a print shop messenger job) and recently asked for a randonneur rack for a 400 mile three day he's planning. Requirements were a) small, b) light, c) extra water bottle cages. It was worth the price break to get a set of the top plates so I can definitely make more of these. $90 without the bottle cage mounts, $100 with.

Dave at Blackstar is making a matching bag for it too that will slip onto that tall backrest and then snap the front for quick, secure attachment. I'll add some pics of that when it gets done.
