This was Bob's 50th birthday gift to himself...he had looked at several local and small custom frame builders. He chose Black Sheep after much deliberation and we are all very impressed with the frame. The build kit had to match the quality of the bike too...so he had started collecting parts for 6-9 months from us in anticipation of the big day. He worked directly with Black sheep on the bike design and build...then had the frame shipped to us and we did the assembly and made sure all the parts fit properly.

Scroll down to view some pictures we did manage to take before it left the shop...If you have questions about these project bikes please feel free to e-mail us at trails-edge@trails-edge.com and we'd be happy to help as much as we can.
