charlie's single speed

charlie will be using his 853 single speed for everyday commuting. he wanted something traditional but using up to date materials for a stiff and fast bike. I think the complete build turned out looking like a real treat and charlie was chuffed to bits with the end result. look out for him whizzing past you on his daily london commute!!

i love the new fork bend radius!

  3. Charlie's account of his bike was a brilliant distraction from the root canal prep he performed on my upper left molar yesterday. I don't know which was more fascinating, his talking about the bike or the wonders of the root canal system.
    It is very lovely though.
