Tide's Turning

Had a nice morning chat with one of the coolest bike manufacturers around. 2009 World Domination plans were bandied about as well as (more than) a few jabs about a bandy-legged quirky short guy. Moots riders riding Moots frames across great distances to race bikes, gopher shipping details, blah blah blah oh and my bike should be here before Sir Chipmunks. Excellent.


The team frames and components are currently being crafted as I type. Exciting. Though I'm wondering why it says "Rigor slider girlie bike" next to my frame on the work order? Mine will look something like this, but with a steel Vicious Cycles fork and Misfit NUbars & stem:


Dicky's will be a much smaller size frame (built from leftover stems and seat posts) with extremely exaggerated numbers (much like his race resume) and much larger wheels (to make him appear taller in photos) and suspended at a precise 5' 2" above the ground (just outside his little wee arms reach) until he grows into it.
