07:48 "I don't want anything passing out of here that I wouldn't want for myself" - this, ladies and gentlemen, is when you know you've struck gold. When you hear a business owner say words to that effect, you can be pretty sure of a quality product/finish.

Now that's true love of the greatest invention, the bicycle.....I wish I had my old 20" wheeled bicycle I had as a kid in the 70's to restore. I have no idea what brand it was because it was so rusted up and we found it in the county landfill. My parents sold the house I grew up in, but left frame and other random junk in the barn. I hope to possibly have a custom mountain bike built in the same style of frame once I get my kids through college. I have pictures of myself on the bike, so that will be the inspiration for the build. My Dad had painted it with leftover red paint, painted the wheels white, a banana seat, and balloon tires. So, maybe a modern plus hardtail version in the same style would be fitting

What a great peek inside to what you do and why you do it! I admit I'm a little biased as that's my Rockhopper in the video. Mark did a great job and I'm sure I'll be making use of his services in the future.

Those were some tough looking bikes back in the day. I had a black and blue one I think?

Your personal attachment to quality control shows. As a former shop mechanic, it was amazingly satisfying knowing when finished a bike would function better than originally sold. Nice artwork! Do you do nickel plating and chrome in house as well?
