Aligning the rear end on a Bringheli jig

I’ve played with a few different Bringheli frame jigs, and recently purchased one of my own. One thing that has always vexed me while looking at them was to figure out how to align the different bits and pieces. With no markings at all on the jig, setup can be a bit of a challenge. Dave [...]

Three Stars in the news.

Three Stars is going to get a little bit of press.  Joel at j.woodward design put together this shot for the deal, kinda fun. We also have a facebook page in addition to the main Three Stars page. Check em out!

It’s a Company

So I’ve been building lots of bikes over the last year. Some I’ve talked about here, some I’ve not. I’ve decided to throw my hand in and build for other folks. For now it’s part time, and I expect to build about 12 frames a year + wheels and mechanic work and whatnot. The company’s [...]

Another class member Clifford does not have a bottom bracket and some other stuff. Hopefully my stuff arrives tomorrow, it has been shipped from England last week. Clifford’s appears to [...]

New Rack!

Today I got my new rack in the mail! Its a top rack made by Nitto. I’ll finally be able to carry the saddle sack I picked up from Rivendell awhile back. I’m really excited about this as I’ve been commuting with a messenger back for the last few years. It will be nice to [...]

Madsen contest

Madsen Cycles is a cargo bike company. From the looks of it they make a pretty slick product, but I’ve not seen one in person yet. They are running a contest to get a free bike. If you stick one of their banners on your page you are entered. All that said, I think there [...]
