Read the bicycle
Frame, wheels, drivetrain, brakes, bearings, and fit are assessed as a connected system before any work begins.
One bicycle. One considered process.
The sequence changes to fit the bicycle, but the standard stays the same: inspect clearly, preserve intelligently, and verify the result on the road.
The bicycle remains visible while the process moves beside it—one object, four connected decisions.
Set the direction
Preserve what carries the story, replace what limits safe use, and agree on the finish before dismantling.
Restore and rebuild
Clean, repair, refinish, assemble, and tune with attention to tolerances—not just appearance.
Fit, ride, refine
Road testing and final adjustment turn the workshop result into a bicycle that feels resolved in motion.
Restore what matters. Replace only what has to change.
