    Inspiration

    Somehow this bike landed in the shop. a Rolls. I Somehow this bike landed in the shop.  a Rolls.  It’s a sleeper.  Little to zero verifiable information via the wubwubwub.  Basics: New Jersey bike shop imported a bunch of frames from a Very Important Builder in the 1970s.  Perhaps Colnago? The shop owner has long passed; there’s no history of teams or sponsorship of any level. It’s Columbus tubing, pretty italian long point lugs, campag nuovo record groupset.  Stored long term with care and hardly ridden in decades.  Before I horse trade this for a lotta bikes I could use for many more people to be super happy about, would anyone be interested in this? It’s cool but there’s no cachet or uber important stake to a Italian road racing heritage or American cognoscenti snobbishness in it.  I’ll be very happy to be proven wrong with any of these statements. If e-ritchey or Peter weigle is like hold on Dude WTF are you doing, I’ll reconsider. But I think more people would be happy with the bikes I’m gonna end up with in the end.  TomCat Bikes: the emotive side of bicycle adoption.

    Consignment bike for sale: a small size Specialize Consignment bike for sale: a small size Specialized Globe Daily 02 in a cool copper brown color.  I always like the specialized globe series when that lineup was revamped a decade ago.  This is from that era.  Well speced with alloy fenders, a rack, bolt on wheels, an upright handlebar and a no nonsense 1x8 drivetrain. Flackjacket tires too. It’s in Great shape and a pretty color. You know someone who wants this bike.  Tell them about it. #bikeshop #bikeshoplife #smallbusiness

    Random projects and stuff: Cargo bike leftovers. H Random projects and stuff: Cargo bike leftovers. Historic SF Critical Mass bike speaker setup. An actual real Schwinn Cotton Picker in all it’s as-found glory.  Also. TIL that #pussyriot is a hashtag that can potentially be flagged as dangerous and offensive when speaking truth to power.  And @publicenemy is right on with their social critique.  Sorry folx.  It gon happen.  The personal is the political. #blacklivesmatter . white supremacy is something that whitefolk need to fix. #vintageschwinn #schwinnstingray #cottonpicker #cargobike #criticalmass #sfcriticalmass @schwinnbikes #bikeshop #bikeshoplife #smallbusiness
