Doug’s Stellar #1 Black Sheep Custom

“Doug bought this frame from us 13 years ago and has been riding it all over Nantucket ever since. He sent it back to have it updated for the next decade. Faith fork, Mountain mustache bars, Belt drive, Rohloff/ 29″ wheels, and a new media etch by blast master Pauly D will keep him rolling for many years to come.”

Always fun to see great looking bikes show up on site you’re not expecting. A prime example is this sick Black Cat hardtail on ProllyIsNotProbably.

“The bike is all XT and I built the wheels with Mavic 717 rims. The fork is a Fox 100 mm. The 2×10 drive train is pretty much the stock setup on all 29ers I build.”
