So there I was in my garage looking at the bare frame of a machine that I once belovedly(not sure if that’s a word) called…(say it with a deep voice) BURT REYNOLDS. I was saddened that it just hung there on a hook, not being used. I started having flash backs of the fun filled…
Results for "single speed"
Hard as in hard tail. Rigid to be exact! Check out the Soma Juice 29er. Soma provided the frame, seat collar, fork, headset and stem. Slider dropouts give me the option to go single speed at a later date. I may just take them up on that offer. The build plan basically has a budget…
It is with a heavy heart to announce that our very own Burt Reynolds is retiring. He’s gone from a regular Redline D600 to a rigid single speed, then to a formidable XC riding machine with X9 parts and all that jazz. On his latest rendition he donned a whole new look with blue plastidip.…

I know I know, some of you are thinking that this isn’t possible. But you know what, it’s happened to me more than a few times. In fact just last year I felt it from May until September. It’s this overwhelming feeling of just not wanting to ride, or lack of motivation to get on…
As you may recall I talked about Burt Reynolds getting a facelift. So after giving it some more thought and double checking with LadyP to make sure I can part out her old bike, I went to town on Burt the following morning. After spending some time to strip the KHS XC604 of its parts,…
As you all know, Burt Reynolds is one handsome bike. For those of you just tuning in, that’s this bike right here. Yup he’s a handsome devil. But then I got to thinking…”Wouldn’t it be fun to mix things up again with Burt?” If you recall, Burt started off as 24speed entry level 29er. Then…
