The other day Joe Mcmahon and a few other local riders decided to have a little trials ride down on Dallas Rd along the ocean. Here are a few pictures of us riding our trials bikes at the local beach. Joe is on the black Peyto and I am on the Green Peyto frame doing a steep roller. The pictures were taken by Erik Lyon.

On april 23rd, the first annual custom bike show n’ shine took place at Toxik Design Lab. Lots of choppers and vintage cruiser bikes. I built a mini bike frame trophy as a prize for one of the categories. I also had an old school show bike on display (the white one). Lugged columbus tubing, beautiful paint by Toxik. I will be selling off this bike (frame and fork only is an option) if anyone is interested, contact me. Size is 53.5cm square.

Here is a series of shots of a custom MTB fork being built. Looong 480mm length for 5″ suspension correction. Fillet brazed cromo unicrown blades, one piece machined steerer tube. Custom 8″ post mount disk tabs. Peyto’s signature blast/phosphate/clear powdercoat finish for that industrial look with great rust protection.

Here are a few shots of a stainless maple leaf being brazed onto a headtube. I’m generally not one for decorative fancy-pants stuff on frames, but I thought this would be cool.

Custom freeride frames are a Peyto specialty. Using high strength Reynolds 853 or True Temper tubing allows us to build lighter, stronger more lively frame. Sure that off the shelf 7lb straight gauge cromo frame is solid but if you prefer to ride up rather than push or shuttle, and like a lighter more flickable bike, a Wild Bill might be what you’re looking for. Here are some pics of a build that i’m working on …. more pics to come in a week or so.
