Sorry for the low rent screencap. @bildabike has a new model step thru hybrid called the Jasmine. I am taking Pre orders now, for September delivery. Two sizes: Small 4’11” to 5’6” and large 5’4” to 6’+. Basic spec is 700c wheel with 35mm wide tires (allllmost #gravelbike size); 1x7 Shimano drivetrain with an altus rear derailleur; V brakes, at a price point where there is usually caliper brakes speced; bolt on hubs for theft resistance; upright riding posture. Color is a cool cream. I’ll be calling my short list who have been waiting months for a bike like this. Send a message if you want to be added. #stepthrubike #notamixte #shimanoaltus

Those maintenance free nexus hubs need maintenance

Those maintenance free nexus hubs need maintenance. We do a thorough visual inspection, Solent and lube dip, then a repacking of bearings and assembly of the hub. It’s a process and necessary. When was your hub last serviced? And by who? There’s a few shops in town that do this right.

I have these neat new road bikes from @bildabike. Their Ravenel is solid for the price point. I’ve had a few people requesting a more upright city posture. So here’s my solution. Now it’s a hybrid or fitness bike. This is on a 54cm. I can do this on any size Ravenel, and there are many more bar choices if you want something different. #custombike #citybars #bikeshop #bikeshoplife #smallbusiness #portlandia #independentbikeshop #localbikeshop #commuterbike #bikecommuter #gobybike

These are bikes for sale. I have another 60 bikes crammed in the shop for repair. I super appreciate the business. I’m currently booking appointments for drop off but your bike will be here for a week or longer depending on depth of work. Perhaps it’s time for a backup bike so you are not without transport or fun or therapy? #backupbike #secondbike @bildabike #ravenel #glitter #lager @sebikes @iamspecialized #specializedhardrock #bikeshop #bikeshoplife #smallbusiness #portlandia #independentbikeshop #localbikeshop #commuterbike #bikecommuter #gobybike

New bike frame stickers! Tomcat gives bikes a soul, so I thought it was appropriate to say so. Did you buy a bike from me in the past two years?

Oh yeah. 4th of July weekend. We did things. Stuff was done. Out of state. It was fun. Totally illegal sparklers and cake were involved. And some Playa dust. And a hot springs on the way back. @mistyem333 #love #blackrockdesert #4thofjuplaya #notburningman #nonevent #organizedcoincidence #happybirthday #sparklers #camping #offthegrid #vanlife

Instant tandem to bring your kid (or anyone 45-52” tall) on tonight’s #pedalpaloozapdx tandem ride. Trek Mountain Train with a 6 speed shifter, adjustable saddle handlebar and stem to dial fit. Borrow? Rent for the weekend? Forever home? Your choice.

Never say no to a vegetarian special option from across the street @bottosbbq. Thank you! Today was an unexpectedly challenging re-entry from a few days off. This helped redeem it. #fourthofjuplaya #4thofjuplaya

Sorry @snoopdogg. It’s hot AF. We will not be accepting appointments until after 8. The AC needs a little break. The mechanicuses need a bit of a break too. Calendar is open for appointments after July 8 for significant work. I’ll consider spot work if it does not disrupt the flow of what needs completing before Friday. Flat fixes are always while you wait. #vacation #yeahitsthathot

It’s gonna be a hot one. Downtown/pearl/old town will register 10 degrees hotter. Be safe out there folks. Share your electrolytes. Find shade. Make a misting station. #hundredandfuck #115degrees

Big Pink is ready and rolling for loud n lit! Brought to the shop as a carcass: everything wrong and wrecked with weeds growing through the wheels and a handful of clapped out parts. I banged out the headset earlier, and was able to fit a nice sealed bearing headset. The rest of the parts were a deep dive in my bins to find just the right weird specs. The derailleur hanger is mid seatstay mount (….!) so a short cage Deore DX was snagged. Used some Friction only stem shifters to save my sanity. The octalink bb and crank because why not. @jon.dutch is gonna have a good time. #bigpinkbuilding @pedalpaloozapdx #loudnlitride #tallbike #freakbike

A purple rockhopper done up with the collaborative build process. It came out great! Upgraded rear wheel to accept 8/9/10 sp cassettes in the future, a campy rim on the front, original 3x7 Shimano STX drivetrain and brakes. Sealed headset and bottom bracket too. Totally outfitted with fenders, basket, u lock, and kickstand. Finished it with cool cool accessories from @ridepdw : #fenderbot, power700 headlight w outpost basket mount, and a super adorable and super new otter bottle cage. #colaborativebuild #vintagespecialized #specializedrockhopper #xbiking @26inchlifestyle #waldbasket #bikeshop #bikeshoplife #smallbusiness #portlandia #independentbikeshop #localbikeshop #commuterbike #bikecommuter #gobybike

A Gitane Interclub bought from Phil’s here in Portland in the early 1970s. It was his bike in college. Still used as a daily rider. We are updating some stuff: new french thread velo orange bottom bracket and vintage Shimano 600 crankset, better derailleurs, and gatorskins tires for the newer wheels. customer likes the plastic cantor saddle and the original steel handlebars. So we keep them. #philsbikeshop #oldbikeshop #oldbikes @gitane._.official #vintagegitane #green #1973 #frenchbike #fabriqueenfrance #bikeshop #bikeshoplife #smallbusiness #portlandia #independentbikeshop #localbikeshop #commuterbike #bikecommuter #gobybike
