After all the trouble I went through to get the Pipebomb set up, I ended up deciding to sell it only about a week or 2 after it was finally done. Even from my point of view, that is incredibly fastidious; however, I have my reasons. I was never completely happy in my mind with [...]

Pipebomb Current

Here’s my bicycle right now… took quite a bit of work to get to this point. I decided the HED3 I had was too flashy and not needed for something on the street, so I sold it and got a H Plus Son rim built to a Phil Low Flange hub. Since I rode in [...]
Black Market Sale
February 25th, 2010 · No Comments · Dirt Jumper, Fixed Gear, Miata
I sold the Dirtjumper about a month ago. The main motivation behind me getting rid of it is because I felt too old to be riding a bike like that, and since I wasn’t able to start when young… I didn’t see me getting really good at it any time soon. A bit disenchanting when [...]

BLK MRKT Redux
September 5th, 2009 · No Comments · Dirt Jumper, Fixed Gear, Miata
After upgrading the crankset, I took the opportunity to step it up and redo a lot more… I changed a lot of parts this time around and the bike has a much different feel now. It started with a few more orders from Deity. I got the same front sprocket I had again in anticipation [...]
Deity Vendetta Rev2 Crankset
July 10th, 2009 · No Comments · Dirt Jumper, Fixed Gear, Miata
My DirtJumper came with some fairly beefy looking 3-piece cranks, but they looked generic and had no branding. I took the opportunity a few months ago (somehow didn’t get to this until now…) to change out the bottom bracket and crank arms. Keeping with the Deity theme and quality, I picked up their Vendetta crankset. [...]
2005 Celeste Bianchi Pista Concept
May 29th, 2009 · 1 Comment · Fixed Gear
After a couple months of diligently searching the classifieds for a minty Pista Concept, I found one coincidentally in Colorado (same place where I found my RX-7). I knew I had to have a Pista Concept again, but this time with original paint. I ended up buying a complete bike off of him instead of [...]

BLK MRKT Mob 26″ Dirt Jumper
April 24th, 2009 · No Comments · Dirt Jumper, Fixed Gear, Miata
As a little preface, I ended up selling the Aerospoke front wheel from my fixed gear (even though I only owned it for maybe 3 weeks). It was just too heavy for what it should be, so I let it go in hopes of getting something different down the line… I used this as an [...]
Nice to Meet You, Pista Concept
April 8th, 2009 · 4 Comments · Fixed Gear
The reason I put my Iro for sale was to fund a new bike build. I felt the urge to upgrade so I decided to start from the ground up. The Iro was a nice bike, especially for a first fixed gear, but I needed something with more refinement. I’ve always been eying the Bianchi [...]
More Pics of the Iro

Ended up roaming around campus and such one random Saturday and brought my camera with me. Snapped these pics… bike was put on sale shortly after.
