Love this gallery. It's always cool seeing what Todd is cooking up. My Black Cat single speed is still far and away my favorite bike I've ever owned. Came for the looks, stayed for the ride...it is amazing.
Thanks for reading it! I made sure to make the time to talk to as many of the builders about the bikes I shot as possible. While there are a lot of things I can discern just by inspection, there's nothing better than getting the information straight from the source.
That's definitely a big reason I'm such a fan of these sorts of bikes, too. As much as top-end mainstream bikes offer big performance, the aesthetic aspect often just isn't the same.
It is, but given all the printed parts, that's apparently also just what it needs to be. Fingers crossed, the cost of printing titanium will cost down a lot sooner than later.
I’m only marginally interested in how these ride versus standard retail frames because they all look so amazing. But you know they all must feel just as amazing. And yes, the truss work was so worth it. Great gallery!

great photos and loving the juxtaposition of advanced manufacturing engineering and art!

But 17k is brutal…
