Shut Up and Build Bikes Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Framework Bicycles is an impressive operation. In this episode we discuss Jonathan's story and everything about the bicycles and manufacturing process.

Swood Cycles is based in Richmond, Virgina. Since 2018 Stephen has been building up a shop and building bikes. You may know him for his steel bike frames or his T-Bars. Now he's starting a new venture - Haute Bicycle Co.

We share Hern's story getting into the custom bike biz. We discuss his area of expertise - carbon fiber framebuilding and frame repair.

This week I share my interview with Rob English of English Cycles in Eugene, Oregon. We talk about Rob's history in the bike industry, his own business, and we ended up talking a lot about lean manufacturing at the end.

Aaron Stinner has been building bikes for over a decade and we talk all about it. Our discussion gravitated toward running a business, the importance of paint, and a whole lot more.

This week I share my Interview with Em of WZRD Bikes in Vancouver Island, Canada. We talk about fillet brazing, bike geo, Laser cutting parts, paint work, and a whole lot more. Enjoy.

This week we interview Nick Kuszyk AKA Garbaggio in Queens, New York. We talk about the Huffer, his story, and why bikes rule generally.

Tom builds fillet brazed and TIG welded steel bicycle frames from his small shop in Philadelphia, PA. With roots in BMX, Fixed Gear Freestyle, and MTB, Tom builds some really excellent bikes. We talk about his story, construction methods, tooling, his machines, and the difficulty of finding suitable workspace as a builder living in a major city.

This week I'm talking to Adam "Prosauce" Prosise of REEB Cycles in Lyons, Colorado. Adam machines and welds a ton of beautiful bicycles at Reeb, while riding like a maniac and still managing to run his own side hustle - Prosise Metal Works. He is a much stronger MTB rider than most framebuilders and we discuss how his riding and racing inform his fabrication and design work. We talked a lot about how a job he held for 5 years prior to REEB prepared him for success. I'm always interested in the Full Suspension bike design discussion and that was no disappointment either.

Buckle up, it's a long one!

Zach Small runs Amigo Frameworks in Nashville, Tennessee. In this episode we talk about his story, from working with Rob Roberson and Joe Bell in San Diego, CA, to Comrade Cycles in Chicago, and the bikes he has built along the way. We discuss his time in trade school and how it relates to making bikes. Zach tells us about Champ Ramps, his venture in the works to make sick, cnc-cut bike ramps.
