GringoBicycles

It is a tremendous honor to be a part of this beautiful publication. Bicycle framebuilding and its history is an artform that I love and adore. The craftsmen and women in this book remind me that I am merely a beginner in my passion. I often need a reminder of that. I find myself trying to learn and emulate the work of other builders and craftsmen whom I admire on a daily basis. The reality of how long it takes to perfect your own process and craft sometimes escapes me. Having my photograph included alongside the likes of international and local handmade behemoths like Louisville Slugger, Lyman Boats, Warther Cutlery, Freddy Hill, Steven Yusko and all the others that fill this book is a privilege that I do not take lightly. An enormous THANK YOU to for including me.

It was the perfect weekend to deliver #13! If you're from this neck of the woods, you may recognize Frances has been pedaling longer than has had its shingle hung out. One of the first and longest standing supporters of my business. She was a fixture(all pun intended) on the Cleveland city streets with her trusty fixed gear for many, many moons. Fast forward a few years, and it's only fitting that she came back to Cleveland for her first bicycle with gears! I am beyond honored that I can be a part of this story, and I can't wait to hear how this thing handles the hills of Maine! THANK YOU. ❤️🚲
