One-man bike builder. The finest touring frames in the World. Other kinds of bike frames on request. www.bgcycles.com Not a man to suffer fools lightly, his time is valuable.

Due to the tight economy recently Bruce is expanding into custom-made or "bespoke" bicycles. Ornate lugs have been carved out of solid titanium blocks to join carbon-fiber and/or exotic alloys into complete frames. He has won top0 prize several times at the national hand-built bicycle competitions. He has personally told me few things upset him more then people who take one of his bikes, no matter how special, and hang it on a wall as a piece of art instead of giving it hard usage.

Unique hybrid tires suitable for both on and off road use are available including boxed sets with three innertubes.

  • With thanks to John Schubert, "What if you are just plain hard on equipment?You carry a lot of weight, you bash through potholes, you ride on rough unpaved surfaces, your weight just has more metal bending Karma then other people's weight. Maybe you plan on riding vast distances, over rugged terrain in remote country. . ." "While there are several examples of heavy-duty touring bikes, the ones that many people think of are made ..." here.
