Anthony Wilson is easily one of my favorite people to ride with.  He has a super fun attitude, works hard, has his own ideas and does it all with style. Here is his watermelon green Funday with matching Morning 2.1 forks and black magic Victory bars.  He’s always been one of those guys that is good at just about anything he tries.  Check out the threader feeble grind in the flipbook which is at some spot in Buffalo that I don’t know about.  Thanks to Charlie Crumlish for the photos.

Logan Beyhl handles the phones at our distributor Full Factory and just so happens to have built up this super sweet Wave C bike.  He borrows from Aaron Ross‘ soda orange color, mixes in some white spokes and finishes it off with Black Magic.  He’s even switched to running front brakes only on the Morning 24.1 forks with brake mounts.  Major endo sessions being planned now.

Here’s a sneak shot of the new Vapor Blue Wave C frames that just arrived in the warehouse.  This color is amazing!  I’m not sure whether to switch from the Black Magic I ride to the Vapor Blue.  Either way both 21.25″ and 22″ frames are  available this week.

Check out Austin local and pool shark, Scot Draper’s brand new Conductor frame with Morning 2.1 forks and Triumph bars.  We’ve been helping him out for a little while now.

Alex Magallan decided to change some things up on his bike, so he put together this 21″ purple Forecaster with matching Morning 2.1 forks and chrome Tall T bars.  He was looking to add some length to the front of his bike, so he made the jump from a 20.75″ to the 21″.  He also quickly adapted to the Forecaster’s 75 degree headtube angle.  Check out his complete parts list after the break and take a peek at his previous bike check.
