Who and What

Hi All,
Welcome to this blog.
I'm autodidacted bicycle enthutist and mechanic, waiting for the right moment to be fully dedicated to the dream of LBS (local bicycle store).

I can do almost everything with your old bike to make it shine and roll.

I can get you everything for your new bike project build.

The only thing I can not do, is to make you ride.


Anyway, fell free to comment, contact and ask questions.

With smile,
Garazhik

Moth (Bucephalus)

Well, here is the story.
Right after i have finished Raleigh Grand prix, it was clear that if no road bike can do what track frame was made to do. Thus i was looking for track frame new and special.
Then in June i had a short vacation in between jobs and found myself in NY the fixed gear capital. First thing i did was to map all well know bicycle stores in Manhattan and pay a visit. Apparently the nicest place was the first one and the owner Jeff Woods inspired me with his own creation "Moth". I'm known as non-rational buyer and need my time to think so i postpone the purchase till i would be back from Boston. Boston on the other hand had a lot to offer and i was almost seduced by swobo frame. But lucky me, back to NY and bought this beautiful Moth.
Then I’m flying over the ocean, got stopped by border police, but released as they couldn't find the frame in internet and so on.
It took me almost 2 month to find a simple headset for this frame cause everyone in Tel-Aviv was afraid to touch the frame.
But eventually the story came to the logical end and i have very unique and gorgeous bicycle. Not to mentioned the fame)
