Handmade Bicycle Show!

Tomorrow morning I'm heading up to Portland, OR for the Handmade Bicycle Show. My dad is coming along as well as my long-time friend Chris to help out. I managed to ship four pristine bikes and the booth supplies last week....in total 167 lbs of bike stuff! I'm sure the Fedex bill will be high but it's worth it since this show will be sick.

This morning I picked up a prototype batch of the WiseCracker LITE. This product is a 4.3mm thick headset spacer with an integrated bottle opener. It's machined in the USA from 6061-T6 aluminum and weighs 14g. There are no bolts, clamps or sharp edges to run into and I expect to sell a bunch of these at the show. Stay tuned for blog updates including my first-ever attempt at uploading videos from the show....
