The Radavist

Matt’s just providing jobs for construction workers here. This is too good! Nice one Mash.

It’s not everyday that BAUM photographs one of their Corretto track bikes, so when I saw this, I had to share. Check out more of this GTR metallic black, venom green and Dura Ace track build at the BAUM Flickr.

In the Red Hook Crit coverage here on PiNP, there was a discussion about the young rider who took a nasty spill and was hospitalized. His name is Joshua “Pro” Hardman and he races for Major Taylor Development Team, an amateur race team, based in Brooklyn, NY.

He’s still in the hospital, due to excessive blood loss and needs our help. Head over to Joshua’s Go Fund Me page to find out how you can help out.

Aventón Bikes offer hydroformed, double-butted aerodynamic 6061 track frames for under $350 in white, gloss black and polished. Check out more shots below, more information at Aventón Bikes and scoop one up at City Grounds.

Tokyo Fixed is still alive and well inside Kinoko Cycles. The shop’s in-house frames sold so well this year that they just restocked. That includes the popular Death Spray Custom collaborative frame the Ono, one of the best production track frames in my opinion! Holler at Kinoko for ordering!

For as bad as it looks, everyone appears to be ok. Last night’s Red Hook Crit Navy Yard course proved to be too much for 98% of the field.

Dan posted this photo up on his Tumblr earlier today. It’s of the new Stanridge Speed prototype track frame. Adam and Dan worked together on what I would call a much more practical geometry. The early name for this prototype is the “Highstreet Compact”. We’ll see if that one sticks. Personally, I’m more into compact lines on a track bike, rather than a low pro and this bike looks like a beast. We’ll see how it performs tonight at the Red Hook Crit Navy Yard!

Gucci as in Guerciotti. Kyle shot some great photos of this classic track bike over on Tracko. Head over to see the rest!

Another artist that’s been working with Unknown and CBNC on their raffle bikes is David Flores. Ace from The Sleepers went over to David’s studio while he was working on masking out the frameset and his photos are very nice. Worth the click-through even… If you’re in LA this evening, roll through the raffle event tonight!

The Great Divide Road Frameset

The Little Wing Track Frameset

I can’t tell you how many companies I get emailing me their frames but rarely do the words Made in the USA appear in the copy. No 22 is a Canadian company, using a well-known US-based titanium manufacturer to produce high end but affordable frames.

Their two models are the Great Divide road frame and the Little Wing track frame. Both of which tout clean detailing and construction. I’m waiting on a complete build to post as well, so stay tuned. Until then, check out No 22’s offerings here!

This should get you pumped on Red Hook Crit Navy Yards! Nice one Iride.

… and they mean business for the Red Hook Crit Navy Yard. Three guys from Division 1, a new bike shop on the East Side of Austin will be there racing. More on their bikes tomorrow!

Ok, this is pretty rad and while I still dig Alan’s Hail Satan Porteur, I’ll commend Tobias for keeping it DIY and letting that rack oxidize. Thanks for the heads up Alan!

How’s this for some good vibes? All the way from Toronto’s Bikes on Wheels!

Here’s the latest from State Bicycle Co, in Chicago!

Now this looks rad! Straight from Unknown:

“The CBNC team is raffling off a few of our frames to raise money for heir road trip up to Seattle for this years NACCC’s. They got Devon Tsuno on board to paint one of our LV2 frames and it turned out amazing!

This will take place at Gallery 1988 on 7020 Melrose Ave. We’ll have more pics of the other two frames as they come in! Follow this link to pick up a raffle ticket!
