Had a couple of semi-local guys come by this week and trade in some vintage goodies for some new bike stuff. All kinds of good usable stuff in this batch. We'll probably list a few of the items for sale but many of them will go into the private stash and get sat back for future restorations. Probably the most exciting item for us was the appearance of Dirt Rag issue #21. This was the only issue that we had been missing so now we have a complete collection!
OK, this bike fits both the Mountain Goat and MOMBAT categories so you may see this one more than once. I'll try to use different photos at least! We've had this bike for awhile now but never took any good photos. We were switching the tires to something more appropriate and hanging it up on display at the shop so we took the opportunity to take some better pictures. The Campagnolo off-road tandem group has to be a fairly rare beast. More pictures and details here.
Here are a few pictures of our other Series II bike, #9. The head badge is especially cool. It was made for Barnaby Angell. His brother, Josh, worked with Joe to develop and market the Hite Rite seat locating device, one of the most popular aftermarket mountain bike accessories ever.

This is our Breezer Series II bike which is #10 out of 25. These really were the first scratch built mountain bikes and it is an honor to have them at the shop (we also have #9). I tried to take some detail photos to show the details but you really need to see it in person to appreciate the construction.
