Happy New Year!



At least one guy we know will have an awesome new year: Billdozer at ChopCult and Biltwell. This is the frame we finished for him before Christmas, and it's shipping next week. Bill's frame deviates from our normal Acme aesthetic, but he told us what he was gunning for, and after seeing the photos he says we nailed it.

We're really stoked on the BMX/Triumph style axle dropouts. The loops are one-piece CNC'ed billet steel just like our customer frames, but we reduced the radius and their scale to complement the proportions of Bill's 650 Brit mill.



The axle adjusters are Pangea Speed's stainless steel cams, which is a design that was popular on MX machines in the '60s and '70s. You can see these gizmos zip-tied to the motor mount in the photo below:



Thanks for letting us pitch in on your 2011 show bike, Bill. Let us know if you need any more custom stuff.

And to everyone else…
