Met Stuart today in his workshop in Southsea.
Quite a selection of frames and parts scattered around the converted bar
Great chat and impressed with his long term plans for bikes in the city.
Stuart tells us he has come a long way since June and working from a garage at the bottom of a garden.
He taught himself how to fit brake pads and replace cables, and now works with his employee Peter to give old bikes a new lease on life. Learning something new everyday.
He has finally found the "Thing" he needs to make his life have a real sense of purpose. BIKES !!
He' says he is not quite ready to launch himself on the public at large yet.................................. but watch this space.
Lovely Tea too ..................................... thanks Stu

Today all postal charges have been removed for deliveries of small components within the UK and most of the EU.
Adam MacPherson said earlier today Where is the fairness of buying on line only to get the shock of your life when you see the final postal charges.
All our prices now are inclusive of post and packing. SIMPLES

Titch spotted on his upgraded ride earlier today.
Nice DEEP V wheels there ................................. Blinged up bike now Titch.
Send us pic you were too fast for us to get one.
until then here's one you didn't know we had
Dan from Gosport had a test ride on 3 of the Fixei bikes yesterday.
A 56cm custom in Cream with Deep V's & Halo Courier tyres and an OMG leather saddle.
The next was another fixed gear in Neon Blue 56cm with deep sectioned rims and semi slick 700 X 25 white tyres.
For his final ride he chose a Matt Black 53cm With the wheel flipped for a single speed ride. He really liked the SS but fell in love with the Neon Blue Fixie.
24 hours later he is back in touch to order his own Fixei ................................ and a 2nd one for the very lucky Natalie.
There will be plenty of heads turning when these two ride through Gosport on their Fixies
We changed the front page to show off the Fixed gear bikes and components.
Let us know what you think.
