• Being fortunate to be busier than ever with services as a result of the pandemic has meant that Iโ€™ve put restoration work on hold for the past year and it was nice to find a couple of hours (at 1 in the morning ๐Ÿ˜ฌ) to do a mockup of the latest work. Every single part on this Humber has been re-chromed or restored and is shaping up to be absolutely stunning. #bike #vintagebike #bikerestoration #vintagebicycle #bicycle #workshop #cycling

  • Nice little afternoon job fitting some stealth bars and outrageously pink bar tape. Prime is a brand that I really rate, their wheels are also great quality for the price point. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป #bike #bikeshop #workshop #bicycle #roadbike #pinkbike #cycling #roadcycling

  • Iโ€™m a firm believer that itโ€™s the wheels that make a bike; case in point with this stunning R5 running on ARC 1400โ€™s. Fully serviced with a bigger cassette to climb every hill you could throw at it. #bike #workshop #bicycle #roadbike #dtswiss #cervelo #cervelor5

  • Fettling a Future Shock this afternoon. Although itโ€™s only 20mm of travel, the ability to choose between springs means it can be tailored to suit and actually does a really good job of dampening the stresses on longer rides. Cool piece of engineering. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป #bike #bicycle #cycle #cycling #roadbike #specialized #specializedbikes #bikeshop

  • A little look at my favourite four:

Facom 84TZSA.5 5mm T-handle Hex Driver
-
Park CN-10 Cable/Housing cutters/crimpers (Spring removed)
-
Grandadโ€™s scribe Circa 1944
-
Park DSD-2 JIS Specific Screwdriver 

These get used on pretty much every bike that comes into the workshop and are what Iโ€™d consider to be the very best for their intended use. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป
