This Jonny Cycles crown was built for a 2"+ tire. Jonny Cycles had good press at the recent Handmade bike show. For a better look at his edgy and cool bikes click here. I had a discussion last week with a frame builder about how builders like Jonny and Sacha White are not only the next wave in frame builders, but they are selling to and attracting a younger crowd. Way to go Jonny!

This omelchuck has been making the rounds lately. It's a beautiful bike for sure. Thanks for the submission Steve.

I'm not a big Masi fan in general, but the track bikes are extra special. This bike is perfect.

I like this picture. I hope the rust is from use rather than abuse.

This Pegoretti crown is from friend Steve Hampsten @ Hampsten Cycles. Check these guys out here. Steve will make it easy to buy a bike or take a tour.

I love these painjobs from the 40's. Make note of the indexed shifting.

I'm not sure where to start admiring this beauty. This singer has the prerequisite forkcrown but integrated headtube headlugs is a bit more interesting. Gotta love the integrated lighting and racks too. I saw some metax headtubes recently that would do this arrangement well. This would be a cool look with Sachs Newvex lugs.

This is a great crown, but I wonder sometimes if the builder didn't cut things too close on accident sometimes. Note that the fork has been stripped of matching paint.

Hellyette with twin plate fork crown. I curious to know whose picture is on the seat tube. I may ask one of my goofball CR pals.
