Updates

Yes it's been awhile. Jobs, work travel, and kids' sports have all been in full swing this spring. Jason has finished the first OtisB. It's a 29" front wheel and 650B rear wheel. We're testing out the concept to see if it creates a more nimble single track machine (especially in SS mode). He somehow sneaked this through without build pics, which is unfortunate because there was a lot of work that went into the twin top tube production process. Anyway, here's the final creation:


Concept bike finished, it was time for some "product testing". Plus Jason and crew had just welcomed a new pop-up camper into the fold. The open road called! Weekend pass secured, the boys headed off for Red Canyon, Utah. If you haven't heard of this place, you gotta check it out! Some of the best singletrack you'll ever ride with views and vistas that can't be beat. It's just outside Bryce Canyon NP in southern Utah (about 4.5 hours from Flagstaff).

The area campground was full, but we found a tasty little spot off of a nearby forest service road.


A few requisite "product" shots, then some ride shots. I'll let the pictures do the talking...










Currently in progress in the shop:
Joth - twin top-tube 29er
Jason - BMX / dirt jump bike for an excited little daredevil

And I promise to get some shop pics posted soon. There are some cool new tools to show off.
