Hello. . . I'm Mo, and this is my bike

As followers of this blog have probably noticed, not very many posts are done by people not named "Clark." While this introduction is not necessarily a wind of change, it is, at the very least, to let readers know that there are other people who comprise True Fabrication bicycles. I am one of them. I think now is the time people would usually go into their majors in college or whether they liked long beach walks or river tubing, but I'll just let you you take a guess as to what I enjoy. . . anyway. . .

I haven't been a member of the team for very long, but in the short time that I've worked here I have been able to eek out a personal bike.



Nothing too special about this one, with it's normalish angles and parts spec, but for those who know any of the other TF guys you probably know that they like their top tubes sloping and wheelbases short; in that respect this bike is unique (while a classic-looking bike doesn't fly directly against their chosen aesthetic, it is a friendly jab. . . I just prefer the look of a straight top tube, which is getting harder and harder to find these days). Okay, more pics



One thing that may change for this bike is the fork. . . there's just not enough clearance for me. . . I'd like to be able to fit 28s, and that's not happening with this segmented/sleeved road fork (a first for TF!).

Some things need to be blacked-out (headtube badge, stem faceplate, front derailleur clamp), but overall I couldn't be happier with how the bike came out.



A classic-looking bike deserves classic-looking colors. For me: British Racing Green, Black, and Bronze. . .






Shop-wise Scott's bike just needs some cleanup after USPS dropped of some small parts we had been waiting for. He's getting a Team TF paint scheme along with some other bikes that have been waiting for a paint job. . . more to come.
