Kona Jake Custom SS
Easily our favorite bike out of the many that we shot at last weekend's KNSCX race at Biwako this custom Kona Jake single speed...
Nothing really high end or flashy but tons of character...
And a genius single speed set up, next to this all other single speed set ups are utter shite...
Chiyo-chan wasn't as impressed as we were though...
They'll be lots more bikes from last weekend posted here soon. In the meantime a very happy Christmas to everyone...

Junya's Salsa Chili Con Crosso
A few shots of one of the most colourful bikes on the Kansai CX circuit, Junya's very custom Salsa Cycles "Chili Con Crosso"...
A Kore/Chris King/Enve steering set up...
With what look like Woodchipper bars and Gevenalle shifter/levers combo making up the cockpit...
Paul taking care of the stopping...
A Fulcrum wheel up front running a Panaracer Fire Cross 45c...
A bright Goodsmile Racing saddle sits atop a Thomson pin...
A really cool mix of parts makes this one of our favorite bikes on the circuit. If you see Junya out at the races be sure to give him a shout of encouragement.
There's a shitload more photos from last Sunday's race that will be posted here soon.
