Very nice! Are those microshift levers on Paul mounts? And what’s the deal with that sleeve on the seat post?

They look like Microshift's own thumb mounts

I just watched some of Bombtrack's House Blend videos and came across this one:

I immediately knew that I saw that bike shop (and logo) before somewhere on the forum. I couldn't find this thread at first so I went to your shop's IG page and looked at the earliest posts. There I found the Cotic Escapade and that's how I found this thread (again).

I hope you and your shop are doing well!

Anything new with your own bikes?

That's some solid detective work! The shop is doing well, still riding that Covid bike-boom and doing our best to stay on top of stock shortages. The Bombtrack video was a highlight from the last few months for sure.

My own bikes are still slowly evolving. Picked up a BTR ranger to replace the Honzo and have a new Bombtrack Munroe Cargo to replace the Cotic as a daily driver. The Cotic is ever-evolving and I've also recently picked up a Surly Steamroller that will be my winter Tracklocross bike.

Good choice love these.

those btr frame are sick.

The Cotic still going good. Seeing a lot of use as a daily with the occasional overnighter thrown in. Have picked up an old set of Hadley hubs and WTB I25 rims that'll get built up in the near future, might get some proper photos then.

A few bonus photos of a recent overnighter. No good loaded photos of the bike but you can get the rough idea.

Looks awesome.

Very nice.

Recent pic of a recent build on a recent trip. Got the frame built locally and got exactly one ride on it before taking it on an 8 day, 1500km bikepacking trip. Fortunately I got the numbers in the right ballpark and it handled it all like a champ. Will take some proper photos one day

Another project that I've recently picked up. As far as I'm aware Pearson was based out of Arrowtown and this bike was built in the early 90s. I've been looking for a 90s mountain bike project for a while and when a customer offered me this one there was no way I could say no. The plan is to keep it fairly simple with a 3x9 drivetrain, some DXR v-brakes and potentially an old moto bar to keep it all comfortable.

Vintage mtb's are awesome and this is no exception, v cool frame! Never saw these and when I google it there's are not many results shown, guess it's pretty unique?
