Ch Ch Ch Ch Cherry Bomb!

Nate's New Beauty Captured...Check out the gallery: Mobius Cycle at Flickr!

A year ago Nate came in for the first time. After blowing thousands of dollars on the internet getting less than he paid for and having little to show for it, we administered some mobius therapy. A year later the Cherry Bomb is complete.

At first his drive train stripped, due to poor factory installation without lubrication and use of soft metal cogs (Surly, Soma, etc.). He upped the ante with a Rear Phil Wood in Red laced to a non-machined Velocity Deep V. Since we have switched fully to DT Swiss painted at SIK Werks, but this week I laced his matching front Velocity to his new Red Front Phil to complete his gradual, hard won freedom from shitty parts syndrome. Here it is in all it's glory.

P.S. His other parts made one amazing single speed for his lady friend safely built at mobius with lube.
