Allegrippis DirtsFest SS Belt Drive


I have been working hard to get the Dirtfest raffle bike and Matt F's TI ss frame in the paint both at the same time since they both need to be at Raystown next weekend. The raffle bike is ready for sand blasting, and Matt's frame just needs the post mounts for the rear brake.

See ya at DirtFest,

Rock Rings

I need to thank Andrew and Tim for cranking out these cool Rock Rings. They are fully CNC machined, black anodized, and engraved with my logo. Sorry, not for sale, but will look awesome on the Dirtfest demo bikes. Cheers, Hub

Matt's frame/DirtFest update

Here is Matt F's TI frame with the rear triangle welded on. It still needs cable stops, seatstay bridge, disc mounts, and mount brace. With it out of the jig, I can get going on the DirtFest raffle bike, which I need to pound out ASAP. Both bikes need to be ready to roll for the big event in Raystown. The DirtFest bike will be a Chromoly single speed belt drive. If you have a spare $10, buy a ticket. Who knows, you may be the proud owner of a sweet new ride. All proceeds go to maintaining the trails there, which are killer if you have not seen.
Things should pick up quite a bit around here after this week, when my other job ends for the next 3 months.
Cheers,

Matt's frame

Sorry for the lack of posts, things have been busy, but the frame building should pick up at the beginning of May. I had to take a couple of hours to machine a new heat sink/argon purger, so that I could weld up Matt's front triangle. This 27.2 sink goes in the seat tube and the fitting is for pumping argon into the tubes for purging.

Matt's frame has been slow going, but is turning out rather nice. Tomorrow I should be able to bend up some stays for the rear.
Cheers,

progress in the shop





Here are a few shots of what has been going on in the shop: Jess K's Ti frame repaint- Kawi green with Belgian orange chain rings should pop. Chad R's Road bike is built and has some miles on it. And finally an emergency A arm replacement for the mini baja. Trees don't want to move out of the way of a 40 mph buggy. Who knew? Our team leaves for competition this week.

Internet Down

Hi All,

Sorry for the lack of posts... my internet has been down (again). We are currently talking to other carriers so this will hopefully not happen anymore. That doesn't mean I haven't been busy in the shop. Things going on include: Chad R.'s and Dennis B.'s bikes are back from getting pics taken. Also, I started Matt F's frame. Plus, I blasted Jess's frame. It needs some pop. The blue and blast finish just didn't have the sizzle I would've liked to have seen.

Cheers,

HUB
