Bruce Gordon Cycles - The Unofficial Official Blog

STOP! In the Name of Fenders...

noreply@blogger.com (Brandon) — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 09:11:00 +0000

Sometimes we listen to the signs that life presents us. Sometimes we don't. Actually, most of the time we don't, this is the bike business you know.

Despite this rather dry winter we've had out in CA (complaining? Hell no..), I can say that Bruce's full fendered road bike creation is ready for the rainy season, with style. I mean just look at it...
<--------------

Speaking of looking - you should have seen the look on the face of the dude riding a new Look and getting passed, on a climb, by some dude riding a steel bike with full fenders and big 28mm tires. Bragging about my riding ability (it never hurts) - not really - just another confirmation that a properly designed and comfortable bike means more than the marketing guru's want you to believe. I heard that this year's color scheme is faster than last years - and some how it's stiffer and more comfortable too. Wait - what are we talking about again??

Either way, it doesn't matter. And that's the point of this post. Bruce was spot on when he asked me how it rode - "Like a bike, eh?". Tongue in cheek - maybe. But the more I ride this road special, the more I realize the beauty of a bike that rides, well, like a bike. You forget about the bike and enjoy the ride. The bike is a quiet, humming extension of your body.

Bruce Gordon knows how to build a bike - a useful, comfortable and enjoyable bike that turns its share of heads and rides like a bike should. And for that I cannot thank him enough.

Show Bikes on the Horizon - NAHBS Update

noreply@blogger.com (bg) — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 03:52:00 +0000

Oh my - it has been a little while since our last visit. But things are picking up here in the BG Cycles shop. We have 4 lugged framesets to build for the NAHBS show - which is about the amount that Ed and I figured we could safely complete before the show. We don't exactly want to pull our hair out trying to finish these things up at the last minute. Not that we don't like excitement, we're just not sure if what hair we have would grow back (and I'm not volunteering to find out).

Ed and I had lunch yesterday to discuss our plan of attack for these new bikes. The one we're most excited about (ok - we're excited about all of them) is a cool resto-mod concept showcasing a new line of Italian drive train components. While we can't let all the cats out of the bag just yet, our marketing whiz kid made us promise to take pictures along the way. Not sure if its because he has a weird bike obsession or wants us to share them (the pictures, not the obsession) with you. Call them teasers if you will.

In Other News...
We have finally put together a mailing list! Not the old fashioned newsletter in the mail kind of newsletter, the digital kind (I'm old, give me a break). We haven't actually written the first newsletter, but there will be one in the future. If we're motivated, you might see one (as in single) a month. So no worries about email spam. You can sign up at the bottom of any page on www.bgcycles.com. If I can figure out how to add a sign up link to the blog, I'll do that too.

Last But Not Least...
Happy 2012! We are the lucky few that get to experience the ending of the Maya Long Calendar. Some are taking this beautifully out of context to suggest the end of the modern world. Whatever. All I know is it's January and I'm still riding my bike to work (though it's a bit cold most mornings). No matter what you believe, make sure to spend some more time this year planted in the saddle of your lovely bike(s). That is a good thing for everyone.

Custom Lugged Frames Are Back & Ed Litton Lends a Hand

noreply@blogger.com (bg) — Mon, 05 Dec 2011 17:00:00 +0000

In preparation for the new year, friends of BG Cycles and myself have been discussing in great detail new offerings for 2012. Being a small company, we can't stretch ourselves too thin. But after much discussion with my dear friend Ed Litton, we have decided to join together and produce a new line of lugged and fillet brazed bikes. Why lugs and fillet brazing? It pays homage to the classic methods of frame building that we cut our teeth on, as well as makes a lugged Bruce Gordon bike more accessible to the public. Not that they weren't previously, but we understand that not everyone has $7000-$10,000 to spend on a bike.

These new lugged framesets will start at $2800. All will be custom sized/fit for each customer - no off the shelf sizing here. All framsets include the following standard options:

Custom Lugged or Fillet brazed steel frame and fork designed around your personal dimensions and riding needs. (Road, Track, Touring, Cross, etc)
Matching Lugged crown fork (an optional Carbon Fork is available)
Standard racing braze-ons included (water bottle mounts, cable mounts, etc). Additional brazeons available as options.
A single color Ed Litton paint job. If you have seen any of my show bikes, you know Ed can lay down paint with the best.
Customer choice of the classic 1" threaded Steerer or 1 1/8" threadless.

Being a custom frame, the sky is the limit with additional options - we can discuss your specific needs. If you want a complete bike, we can do that too. Final cost will depend on additional frame options and the components selected. We'll post some build kit examples to give you an idea of pricing on whole bikes.

Guess What - It Gets Better!

To celebrate this new collaboration between Ed and I, the first frames will be on display at the 2012 North American Hand Built Bike Show in Sacramento. If you want one of these show bikes to call your own, please order before January 1st 2012 to ensure that we can complete them before the show. Be sure to watch our custom bike page, as the new bike options will be added soon. We are so excited about this that we needed to leak it to our ever so faithful blog followers first.

How to Order

Being old farts (and the fact the two of us are probably the slowest typers in North America), email is not an efficient way to communicate with us. All custom frame and bike orders will be taken over the phone. There are too many details that we feel will get lost in trying to communicate via email. Give the shop a call @ 707-762-5601 (I actually answer the phone too). Deposits are the $500 on frames or $1000 on complete bikes with the balance due upon completion.

Questions? Ask Away!

Regards,
Bruce Gordon & Ed Litton

For the Classic Tourer - Blum's Bike Touring Map from 1896

noreply@blogger.com (bg) — Sun, 27 Nov 2011 03:44:00 +0000

Every once and a while I'll stumble across something that is too unique to pass up. And this 1896 bicycle map of California roads definitely qualifies. Complete with the original advertisements, this is close to a must have for you touring nerds out there (myself included).

Pending your desire for this type of historical artifact, I found some reproductions on Zazzle. Though not sure that I would rely on such a map for directions now a days. Then again, I don't need a map, I always know where I'm going (at least according to the super sexy British voice on my TomTom).

A New BG Road Bike Spotted in the Wild

noreply@blogger.com (Brandon) — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 23:13:00 +0000

Contrary to popular belief, Bruce doesn't only build touring bikes. He has a road bike or two up his sleeve. And to for those in doubt (or that have missed it on Facebook), a new BG road bike was spotted in the wild. Sporting 28mm tires, full Honjo fenders and Bruce's signature canti brakes, it was a sight to be seen this morning outside of Verve Coffee Roasters.

Spotted other BG bikes in the wild? Take some pictures and drop us a line. The more BG bikes on the road the better.

Polishing Some Brakes, Living the Dream

noreply@blogger.com (Brandon) — Sat, 12 Nov 2011 18:00:00 +0000

Playing a little catch up on the technology curve can be an interesting. The BG websites are starting to transform into something worthy of 2011, SOPWAMTOS is getting off the ground and people love our shirts (hurry up and buy them, we'll make more. And maybe even some stickers. But I digress). That said, via one of my google alerts I learned of a discussion that compared an el cheapo Tektro canti brake (the 720) to a BG-designed canti brake. That seemed like comparing a Kmart Huffy from the 80's and a Mercx MX Leader. There really shouldn't be a comparison. Sure, technically they're both brakes that fit on a bike - but that's where the comparison really ends. How do I know? I put a set of OEM 720's on my commuter bike and rode it up/down Alba Road in Ben Lomond...

Why You Shouldn't Cheap Out On Crap Brakes
First off, I'm not directly calling the 720's garbage (or Tektro's in general), though in their off the shelf configuration they left a LOT to be desired. Then again, what do you really expect for $27 per set? Here is what I experienced with lack luster brakes:

Extreme pad wear.
Chunking of aluminum (from rim). This means the rim is taking the abuse, not the pad, causing premature rim wear.
High rim temps (due to incorrect pad compound) and very poor modulation.
A nasty mess all over the bike from pad dust. All. The. Time.

Am I suggesting that you need to spend $300 for a decent set of brakes? No, but considering this is a component that will help prevent you from going off the road, running intersections or generally going OTB, quality should not be taken lightly (neither should tires, but that is another post). Hard pads will wreak havoc on rim braking surfaces (Jim Langley agrees), offer poor performance and add a cost to replace the pads (and rims if you're not careful).

Where Quality and Art Meet
This is the selling point for the BG aluminum cantilever brakes - they are a beautiful blend of form and function. Machined in the USA, hand polished and come standard with Kool Stop pads, it's hard to really complain about quality. You will be hard pressed to find other bikes with the same brakes - making them quite the exclusive item (not that bikers care about that kind of stuff). Bruce has spent some time over the last few days polishing up more sets of brakes. Reward his effort by picking up a set up for your canti'd bike (cross or road, doesn't matter). I promise they'll look hot. My new bike is even going to sport these awesome brakes - and yours can too!

Going Big Time - Google Product Search

noreply@blogger.com (Brandon) — Tue, 08 Nov 2011 14:29:00 +0000

Just a quick morning update before getting back to work on a new fendered road bike (equipped with only some of the coolest stuff made by White Industries), but we're getting cozy with Google Merchant. What does that mean for you? That means our products will now be part of Google's product search (shopping), which enables you to see what great deals some of our products (like the BLT) are against rivals like the Surly Long Haul Trucker. Not saying our competitors products are bad ('cause they're not), but we like to think ours are, well, better.

Which reminds me - tell your friends about our BLTs. We don't have too many left & the sooner they're gone, the sooner we can focus our energy on new cool stuff. Like a new (to you, but not to us) tire for the 29er/cross crowd. But the BLT's gotta go first.

Until next time...

Making a Splash at Pedalfest

noreply@blogger.com (Brandon) — Sun, 23 Oct 2011 23:25:00 +0000

First off, want to thank everyone that dropped by the custom bike area of PedalFest yesterday. We met some great people and chatted bikes with people of all walks of life. Met a couple interesting Bruce Gordon bike owners too. One gentleman had ridden his Rock 'N Road touring bike well over 100,000 miles(!) having purchased it new in 1993. Said the frame and racks are still kicking like they did on the day he bought it. Another gentleman is still rocking a custom lugged Bruce Gordon from 1978!

PedalFest also brought about the reemergence of SOPWAMTOS. The lab coats, Fez's and a Golden Toity made an appearance for the show. Bruce and Sean (Soulcraft) even had some shirts made up for the event. They are available in limited quantities, so grab them now while they're still available. Printed on very soft and very black American Apparel shirts, you can profess your love for SOPWAMTOS for $20!

Hello From Pedalfest - where are you?

noreply@blogger.com (bg) — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 18:43:00 +0000

Hey all - we're here at Pedalfest in Oakland, representing the custom bike crew. Come on down and join us, we'll be here all day. Oh, New Belgium Beer is right next to us (even more reason to show up).

SOPWAMTOS - We're Back!

noreply@blogger.com (bg) — Thu, 20 Oct 2011 14:01:00 +0000

(Or maybe we never left)
Yes - there was a bit of a leak yesterday morning that SOPWAMTOS is back. Truth of the matter is, we never really left. But now there is some actual organization to the movement. Not a lot (wouldn't be our style) - just enough to bring our fellow followers a central point to find some very cool American made bikes and parts.

There I go again, letting more things slip. Stay tuned - we're working 'round the clock to make this happen. In the meantime, the BG Cycles store has been updated with all kinds of new products (new to you, that is). Check it out when you have a chance. Feedback is (gasp) always appreciated.

Bruce Gordon Rock 'n Road Tour on Tour

noreply@blogger.com (bg) — Fri, 02 Sep 2011 20:24:00 +0000

Mike Lopez (of Serotta Composites) is riding down the Oregon Coast on his Rock 'n Road Tour with his friend Leslie. WOW, one of the Carbon Fiber gurus riding a steel bike.

Anyone with pictures or stories about using Bruce Gordon products - please feel free to comment and add a photo.

The Store

noreply@blogger.com (Nicholas) — Wed, 17 Aug 2011 21:33:00 +0000

Hey! We have a BigCartel store up now, and it is full of good stuff. We're currently working on redesigning the website, but in the meantime the new store is ready to go. The White Industries/BG stainless clips combo deal is up there, our racks are up there, and the very last remaining BLT's are on there. We hope you like the simplicity of the layout (our rude worker robots certainly do- no lousy humans to talk to on the phone). Questions or comments are welcome below.

Not Going Out of Business

noreply@blogger.com (bg) — Sat, 23 Jul 2011 17:28:00 +0000

Things have gotten a little out of hand because of our last blog post.

Nick, who helps me on these things, put up a post on our blog announcing that we could ship TIGed frames in 3 to 4 weeks, even custom ones.

Some people misinterpreted this post to be an announcement of our demise.

There were posts on several forums with titles like "Bruce Gordon Going Under?" or "Bruce Gordon Cycles in Financial Trouble".

That is simply not the truth - we were announcing that we could deliver frames in a short period of time. Many people think that getting a US made frame from a small shop takes several months or even years.

Nick was trying to inform people who read our blog that they could still get a new frame or bike for the current riding season. In addition, we have many other parts that are made in the USA and available for immediate delivery, such as cantilever brakes, tail lights, strapless toe clips, and our famous racks.

Also, we are closing out the remaining Taiwanese BLT's. We are going back to what we have been doing for the past 35 years - Making neat stuff.

In order the combat those who seem to relish the "demise of Bruce Gordon Cycles," I urge past customers to post experiences with our stuff to their favorite blog, forum or webpage.

The ride was just perfect, and the folks who did it were great. Thanks to every one of you who participated in ABSHWD 2011. We will be hosting more group rides in the future- keep your eyes on the blog and the FB page for more info as we get our ducks in a row and dot the i's and cross the t's.

ABSHWDD: More, More, More! (and a Pre-Ride)

noreply@blogger.com (Nicholas) — Wed, 15 Jun 2011 22:49:00 +0000

With all these folks coming to the Handbuilt Whoop-de-Doo, we figured we'd host a group ride before the show. There will be two courses: an 18 mile there-and-back with Bruce Gordon, and a longer (roughly 27 mi) loop with Sean Walling of Soulcraft. Both groups will ride as a big gang for the first 9 miles, then the Bruce group will head back. This will all be on old country roads, so bring a road, cross, or touring bike.

View Larger Map

The 18-miler (Bruce's group) will go from point A to point C, then back to A.

The 27-miler (Sean's group) will go from point A to point E.
Both groups will leave from Bruce Gordon Cycles
at 409 Petaluma Blvd South
We will leave at 8:00 am sharp.

In related Big Stinkin' news, both the rescheduled Annadel XC race and the Giro Bello (Steven Cozza's fundraiser ride) are happening on the 25th, the day before our big event. They're both raising money for excellent causes, so support them if you can.

I'm also very happy to let you know that BORN + RAISED will be serving good food at the Big Stinkin' Handbuilt show. Because I (Nick) am one half of B+R, I'll try not to oversell it. Just know that I'm very excited to be putting together an event at which both of the things I do can coexist in the same place and time.

In the next entry, you will find out what has been brewing in the workshop over the last week.

Until then, keep the shiny side up and the rubber side down.

The BLT: An Endangered Species

noreply@blogger.com (bg) — Fri, 03 Jun 2011 00:00:00 +0000

The Basic Loaded Tourer is being discontinued. Our attempt at offering an affordable, off-the-rack tourer to compete with Surly’s LHT has been in vain, and we ended up in the import business, which is not and has never been what Bruce Gordon Cycles is about. We are refocusing our efforts and restructuring everything in order to do what we do best: produce the very best bicycles and components right here in Petaluma, California.

NOW you can order one of the last BLTs from our online store, just click HERE.

We still love the bikes and we stand behind them 100%- they are the best non-custom touring frames on the market- but once the last frame is sold, then they’ll be gone forever. Or as “gone forever” as a TIG-welded steel bicycle could ever be, which means your great-great-grandchildren will be selling them on eBay or riding them on the moon.

BLTs come with Bruce Gordon front & rear racks made by hand in my shop in California. These are the very best racks you can get anywhere, and that’s a fact.

They are usually sold separately, but they are included in the BLT package. The BLT Frames are not sold without Racks.

When you order one of the last BLTs, you’ll get a frame, fork, headset, stem (all made in Taiwan to my specs), and my front & rear racks (made in California by Californians) for even less than a LHT with the same components and racks.

Check it out:

THIS IS THE BEST DEAL EVER ON AN EXCELLENT TOURING BIKE!

$750 + shipping & handling*.

The BLT is available in five production sizes: 39, 44, 48, 52, and 56.

I am 6’3” and I usually ride a 62cm bike, but I fit on a 56cm BLT.

Take a look at our Sizing Page to get a better idea of which size would be best for you.

Call the shop if you have any questions or to place an order:

(707) 762-5601

---------------------------------------------------------------

Parts Packages are available, chosen for their reliability, quality, and value, to build up a whole bike (except pedals):

You get a full Shimano SLX Group, handbuilt wheels with XT Hubs laced to Mavic A119 Rims or Alex Adventurer Rims:

$975 + shipping and handling*

Call the shop if you have any questions or to place an order:

(707) 762-5601

---------------------------------------------------------------

That means $750 (BLT) + $975 (Parts Package) = $1725 (+ shipping & handling*) for a complete bike!

*About Shipping & Handling: If you are ordering from outside California, you will not pay sales tax. In many places, the amount you pay for S&H will be about the same as what you'd pay in sales tax.

---------------------------------------------------------------

We have a limited supply of remaining BLTs... Below you will find the exact amount. I will be revising these numbers weekly, so check back often OR BETTER YET, order yours now.

Call the shop if you have any questions or to place an order:

(707) 762-5601

Call us. You will speak with either Bruce Gordon or Nick Haig-Arack, both of whom would be happy to answer any questions you may have. Talking on the phone is better than e-mailing at this point.

Here they are, the last BLTs (last updated June 22, 2011) :

Annadel

noreply@blogger.com (bg) — Tue, 31 May 2011 22:06:00 +0000

BikeMonkey Magazine is putting together a fundraising cross-country race in Annadel ~~this weekend~~ JUNE 25th, the day before Another Big Stinkin' Handbuilt Whoop-de-Doo!

All profits go directly to the park, which is being closed along with 70 other State Parks due to financial concerns.

If you can't make it to the race, there's a benefit shirt available here, where you can donate $10-$100 to the best park in California and get a nice, locally printed t-shirt too.

Register for the race here and help Annadel stay open and available to all of us.

More Big Stinkin' Info

noreply@blogger.com (Nicholas) — Wed, 18 May 2011 22:56:00 +0000

We're getting everything in order and confirming details with exhibitors and attendees, which means that Another Big Stinkin' Handbuilt Whoop-de-Doo is really happening. For those of you who already forgot the whens and wheres, let's review.

When:
June 26th, 2011
11 am - 5 pm

Where:
(click on "Directions" to get driving, public transit, or cycling directions)

Some of you have been asking what exactly a "Framebuilders' Garage Sale" is. I'll quote Sean Walling from the recent Soulcraft newsletter:

"All the Bay Area builders will be there selling all the stuff they got for free from the big companies, which is usually pretty nice stuff and goes cheaply (since we got it for free to begin with)."

That's pretty true. Here at the shop, we have 35 years' worth of stuff (mostly really decent stuff, too- only some junk) that sits in a corner, hangs in a storage space, or lives in a dark corner upstairs, and it just collects dust and cat hair. Bruce has already started pricing these neglected treasures, so you can be sure there'll be lots and lots of "cool old stuff that you can paw through and make really insultingly low offers on" (quoted from Paul Sadoff).

All of the exhibitors involved in the Big Stinkin' Handbuilt Show are confirmed. Here are links to their websites:

Sean Walling of Soulcraft recently wrote an excellent article for Bike Monkey magazine. If you haven't checked out Bike Monkey before, do it right now. In addition to producing a great-looking and well-written magazine on bicycling, they organize some of the Bay Area's best road, cross, and mountain races, including the Gran Fondo, Dirt Crits, Monkey Cross, Boggs Eight Hour, and my personal favorite, Annadel.

The following scans are from Issue 12 of Bike Monkey, which may not be in your local shop just yet. Thanks to Carlos and Greg at BM for letting us use these. Click to enlarge and read, or better yet, go pick up Bike Monkey 12 at your local bike shop.

The Carbon/Ti 650B Randonneur Bike: Part Deux

noreply@blogger.com (bg) — Thu, 07 Apr 2011 21:56:00 +0000

Here you'll find an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the build process for the second (and final) carbon-tubed, titanium-lugged randonneur bike (the first one debuted at last year's San Diego Custom Bike Show, details here and here). Bruce designed, fabricated and hand-filed the titanium lugs and dropouts, and Mike Lopez and his crew at Serotta Composites made the tubing required and assembled the thing. This one was built for Mike's personal collection and is a bit smaller than Bruce's carbon/ti rando bike.

With no further ado, we present to you: The Process.

Next Weekend!

noreply@blogger.com (Nicholas) — Sat, 02 Apr 2011 20:37:00 +0000

The San Diego Custom Bicycle Show is happening next weekend, April 8, 9, and 10. Bruce will be there with a new custom-built bike which may look a little familiar to some of you. I'll put some previews up this week, as well as a new video of the build process.

Here in Sonoma County, we've had some perfect pre-spring weather for trail riding in Annadel or weekend touring to the coast. If you're planning a tour for the summer, now's the time to order some racks, new panniers, fancy cantis, strapless clips, or even a complete new bike. What better way to celebrate good weather, higher gas prices, and (hopefully) a hefty tax return?

Go outside. Go for a ride. Enjoy the wildflowers on North Burma or the California newts on Marsh Trail. Treat yourself to breakfast at Howard's after an overnight trip to the coast. Get off the computer and have a great, great weekend.
