Handmade Bike Show: Road steel and 650B wheels

Pegoretti also does lugged frames.

  • Yipsan's custom freehub spacer
  • Kirk Pacenti probably didn't expect the speed at which the 650B wheel size would take hold.
  • The modular design of White Brothers' forks easily lend themselves to quick adaptation for 650B.
  • Did Ventana leave a 26
  • Ventana's way of fitting a standard front wheel axle in this 20mm TA fork.
  • Yipsan's 650B singlespeed used a Fox 29
  • …whose fork tips sported a new shape than most of the Fox forks we've spotted before.
  • Why use headset spacers when you build the stack right into the stem?
  • For disc brake singlespeeds and Rohloff-fitted bikes, sliding dropouts are easy to live with
  • Arizona's Steve Garro has jumped on the 650B bandwagon with this bike he built for his wife.
  • Coconino frames are proudly built in Flagstaff, Arizona.
  • Fillet brazing yields a cleanly radiused joint.
  • Coconino also showed off this clean-looking 29er.
  • Richard Sachs brought bikes wrapped in his distinctive and easily recognisable paint scheme.
  • Classic lines adorn Sachs' machines.
  • Darrell McCulloch made the journey from Australia to show off his Llewellyn frames.
  • Sure, carbon is newer but wow, it sure doesn't look like this.
  • There's nothing cookie-cutter about these.
  • It's easy to see why McCulloch's frames are regarded as some of the finest steel frames available
  • It's easy to fall in love with McCulloch's Llewellyn frames!
  • Llewellyn also does track frames, and McCulloch has worked with the Australian national team.
  • Yum!
  • A number of Llewellyn lugs await their new home.
  • Despite having cancer, Dario Pegoretti has been busy building frames.
  • Pegoretti's stainless steel Responsorium model made another appearance this year.
  • Pegoretti also does lugged frames.
  • Well wishes from Dario!
  • The Luigino is a rather versatile Pegoretti model.
