Chasing the Glory Presents Ryokou

This looks great!

“Chasing the Glory media house in association with Projucer presents the official trailer and announces the digital release of our latest sports story: RYOKOU (Journey) – a five part web documentary published on this channel.

Ryokou follows the journey of Aussie Cyclist Shane Perkins from his home in Adelaide post London Olympics to taking residence in Japan whilst competing in the 2012/13 Keirin competition.

The sports documentary explores Japanese Keirin cycling as a pivotal part of Shane’s personal and professional growth, in context of some of the major events in his professional and personal career.”

argonaut-road-22

Finally! I’ve been using my Chris King ceramic PF30 BB on my Argonaut and all I’ve wanted is to be able to put one on my Bishop as well. These things are legit and if the word of a raconteur isn’t good enough for you, they’ve been raced exclusively by United Healthcare.

100% made in the USA, with a 5-year warranty, available for 24mm or 30mm PF shells, fully servicable bearings, available in ceramic or stainless and of course, in all the colors of the Chris King rainbow!

Here’s the press-release from Chris King:

“Introducing Chris King Press Fit 30 and Press Fit 24 Bottom Brackets. Equipped with our legendary in-house made angular contact bearings, compatible with our precision grease injection system and backed by an industry leading 5-year warranty, this is the only Press Fit bottom bracket you will need to install in your frame.

We have created our Press Fit Bottom Brackets to uphold the Chris King standard of precision craftsmanship and high-performance function. Based on our phenomenally successful Threaded Bottom Bracket system, our Press Fit Bottom Brackets will give your customers the same performance, serviceability, and dependability that they have come to expect from every Chris King product. With a range of additional conversion kits we are proud to offer a Chris King solution to your Press Fit needs.”

The time of disposable PF30 BBs is now gone. Pick one up today from Chris King!

Made by Hand: Fast Boy Cycles

I really enjoyed this video from Made by Hand on Fast Boy Cycles!

“A project from bureauofcommongoods.com, Made by Hand is a new short film series celebrating the people who make things by hand—sustainably, locally, and with a love for their craft.

Our fifth film turns to bike maker Ezra Caldwell (Fast Boy Cycles), who was diagnosed with cancer in 2008. When the cancer threatens to shatter his love of bikes, Ezra survives by documenting his illness as thoroughly as his craft.”

I Know I Know

ATOC-1

ATOC-2

It’s been a long couple of days on the road for the ATOC this year. Mostly filled with the riding to blogging ratio tipped towards saddle time. The trip has been very productive, while veering a little to the left of the norm. I didn’t find myself in a neutral support car, or scouring the crowds at the start of the race. Instead, we soaked up the riding that the various host cities had to offer.

Tomorrow morning (read: in 7 hours), I’ll be at the start of the 2013 ATOC in SF and then at the Rapha Cycle Club for my photo show all day. Swing by both to catch up!
