We are back at it in our new space at 4033 Hamilton and loving it. It's been a long ass winter of building and creating our new shop space and the results are nothing short of awesome. We have been re-opened just 3 weeks and the shop is already full of repair bikes. If you have not been to the new
We are on Instagram
Exactly four weeks ago I was coming home from a camping trip in the PNW and just like that it’s OCTOBER! It feels like I just got home! Anyways, the shop is busy and the season is sort of winding down. We have many resto projects to stay busy this winter.
September was great — Finn finally finished his Berd wheel build. I visited the new bike park in Mount Airy, so cute! Dominic finished up a 1934 Taylor tricycle. More upgrades for Finn who likes to do last minute shit to his bike before a CX race. Dominic built wheels for a vintage Colnago project. We cleaned up the shop and have a bunch of stuff to give to Vincent at Queen City Bike, and also Fuck Ice. Saved the best for last Anna 🩷. #spunbicycles
This tricycle is very special. It’s a 1934 Taylor and a family heirloom. Every child in their family has grown up riding it. Now they have great, great grand children and this year they went all out. They brought us the bike in pieces already painted. Dominic worked on the metals making magic happen. He rebuilt the pedals. The wheels were the biggest job. He even had to lace one of the wheels with the tiniest spokes. He painted the wheels and reassembled the bike today and WOW just WOW. #spunbicycles #taylortricycle #bicyclerestoration
Finn is ready for CX season! Last spring Finn, who has been a part of the Spun family since he was like 10, found out about Berd spokes, made out of paracord. We made him a deal, order the spokes and help learn how to lace these bad boys up. He and Dominic spent many nights together lacing them up. Not an easy process!! Finn’s summer work schedule got in the way of finishing them until last week. He’s loving them now!!! Such cool technology, I’ve never felt anything like it. #cxishere #berdspokes #spunbicycles #handbuiltwheels
Another cafe cruiser is done! This one was built for Dominic’s best friend Debra. Dominic found her a double butted Tange frame and used a Box groupset for the gearing. Added the front basket and some sweet Dyno frame pads and it came out so 🩷🔥🩷. #26aintdead #spunbicycles #cafecruiser
Selling a very slightly used custom Surly Preamble, size LARGE, for a friend. I think he has maybe 1000 miles on it. We built this bike up with a Rival groupset and GX brakes, Hope hubs laced up to Mavic rims. Asking $1500. #surlybikes #spunbicycles
It’s 1987 again! 👏🏼
A really nice lady brought us this bike in June and asked if we could do a restoration for her grandkid’s birthday in August! Dad wanted the bike to be rideable so we yanked the old mags and added a new school wheel set. The bike was broken down to the frame and dominic shot a coat of clear coat to keep the patina. He shined all metals, added new grips, rubber and pads. This 87 Mongoose Decade is the exact bike Dominic rode back in the day so he was so stoked on this project. Last pic is the “before”. ♥️ #mongoosedecade #spunbicycles #vintagebmx
Anna had fun building up this Surly Preamble frameset. Customer was on a tight budget and were able to make it all happen and right on time. 💯 #spunbicycles
This gorgeous 1963 Schwinn Paramount, chrome lugged and made out of Reynolds 531 tubes, was driven up from Tennessee for restoration. Dominic cleaned up all the rust and clear coated the frame. New rubber and cables with a period correct Campy groupset. God this is one gorgeous bike. Grateful for these out of town customers that trust us with their projects! #spunbicycles #schwinnparamount #bicyclerestoration
