The heart of a bicycle is the frame,

and at the core of the frame are the materials and construction techniques tempered with the experience and expertise of the builder who brings them all together. Read More

    Hello Cyclists, Check out the “Dream Bikes” article in the Dec. issue of Bicycling magazine.db2a I was invited to participate in this years article along with several other very talented builders…….quite an honor I must say to included with these top level builders.

    The premise of the build was for each builder to submit a frame that they felt best exemplified their talents. My beginnings were in the classic brazed frames but I’m currently incorporating newer tech stuff, components etc. in all models of my frames in both steel and Titanium.

    db2dThe frame was built as a classic lugged frame  but utilized a BB30 bottom bracket and Chris King Inset 44mm headset and Henry James stainless steel dropouts This necessitated fabricating all the lugs from scratch.

    Anyway if you have any questions about this bike or anything else please give me a shout…..KB

    For some time nmmooradian1aow many folks have been wondering why it’s been so long since the site has been updated. Well, it’s been quite busy around here and I’ve been concentrating on staying up on customer builds and developing new models such as the new line of Titanium frames. These new “Ti Comp” frames are available like the lugged and Tig’d steel in the full line of models and are offered with the standard colors in a painted finish or polished “Buff” finish. Don’t be shy about calling for more info……price / lead times. The hope is to have the site updated sometime in October and in the mean time I’ll be doing regular posting’s to keep everybody up on the happenings around here……..K

    kb017aHdFrkIt’s late Saturday night and we’ve been receiving requests to upload some pictures of Kelly’s bikes at the show. After setting up last night to shoot some pics the management decided to turn off all of the lights to clear the hall.
    OK, so we got in early and I was able to get some shots, though really, not even close to doing any sort of justice to the beautiful bikes Kelly has assembled for the show. The mercury vapor (or metal halide?) lights in the hall leave a lot to be desired in terms of color rendition and brightness so I’m going to try and re-shoot tomorrow to improve.
    Keep checking back on the pics, but hey there’s some really big news too Read More
