In addition to retail customers, we also serve many shops and framebuilders worldwide. We recently heard from Calculus Bikes a framebuilder/customer in South Africa about their latest bike (that just happens to come in a Halloween-appropriate color scheme), and we just had to put it up as a Bling Build!

It's so exciting to see what's happening in the framebuilding scene on the other side of the globe from us, and we're glad to be able to help get them parts like the Chris King InSet headset an R45D hubs on this bike, that they need to kit-out these beautiful frames! Stay tuned for more from Millar and Charl-Stephan, the brothers behind Calculus Bikes. For now, enjoy the photos.
