Black Sheep Bikes – Sid’s 29+ High Light<\/a><\/h6>\n

I’m a sucker for swoopy old school looking frames. This High Light from Black Sheep is on a whole other level though. The amount of custom touches done on Sid’s bike is amazing. I really like the red pops of color around the bike to offset the titanium. The bike is a High Light 29+ Frame featuring a Ti Thomson Head Post, One Piece Bar\/Stem, Lefty Fork, Rohloff IGH, and Belt Drive. You have to check out the Facebook gallery<\/a> for more details on this fantastic ride.<\/p>\n

Stephen just keeps knocking them out of the park. I really like the unique paint choice on this one. The cream is subtle and classy. If you think the seatangle looks funky Stephen explains:<\/p>\n

“The effective seat tube angle is nothing unusual. The shortest-stay SSs have more offset at the bottom, making the actual angle look radically slack.”<\/p>\n

Retrotec Double Feature<\/a><\/h6>\n

As I mentioned above I really have a thing for curved tubed old school looking mountain bikes. Retrotec is one of the kings of this style. Mr. Inglis has shown off two of his latest creations that I thought were very superb. The first is a “Double” model and the second is his “Triple” model. With all the different versions of mountain bike frames<\/a> he does, I would have a hard time deciding which I’d choose.<\/p>\n

Mosaic Cycles Titanium Road<\/a><\/h6>\n

I know this is supposed to be a “mountain bike site” but when a drop dead beauty like this shows up you have to stop and look. This is one heck of a frame from Aaron Barcheck of Mosaic Cycles<\/a>. The photo comes courtesy of Above Category Cycles Flickr photostream<\/a> where they have lots of other amazing looking road bikes as well. If I was in the market for a road steed this is definitely a great inspirational build.<\/p>\n
