A Recent Visit to the ENVE Factory!

I wish I could say I were the one touring ENVE's factory, but the guys at Singletrack Magazine recently found their way over for a nice tour.  ENVE not only make killer forks and cockpit parts, but also makes many of the carbon tubes and lugs you'll find on US custom, hand-made bikes.  ENVE works directly with a number of builders to ensure that the perfect tube is chosen for each and every bike that builder makes.

Here are a couple of photos that stuck out to me, primarily because this is how my Independent Fabrication Cross Jester (cyclocross bike based on the Corvid road bike) was designed and constructed.  ENJOY!!

This is What Spoiled Looks Like

Riding around these parts just doesn't get much better.  Roll from my house and I'm at the Des Plaines River Trail in 20 minutes.  Ride gravel north as long as I want.  Repeat.

Yesterday's weather was beautiful.  The trails were wide open.  Welcome back summer.
