Petrichor Frames

Hey, I'm actually here after a very long absence! Come hang, talk bikes, etc. #framebuilding

Super stoked to be getting back to building. Shop 3.0 is coming soon in the absolutel coolest way possible! #framebuilding

Decided to play around with Christmas Card ideas. 2016 has been crazy for me! Here's to hoping 2017 brings all of you awesome bikes and lots of growth ;] #fluidisk #christmaslights #discwheel #рост

@stanridgecycles built this incredibly beautiful bike, and I'm completely in love with it. I also got to play a tiny, tiny part in it, as those are Petrichor bars! @adangerpdx supplied the wheels, and the result is stunning. If you're in Philly, go check it out! Photo by @theradavist

It's bittersweet, but me and my little shop are leaving Los Angeles and heading back to the Bay Area. If anyone up north knows of shop space or is looking for a shopmate in the East Bay, please let me know! I'm doing my best to see everyone before I go, so I'll try to be at as many bike events as possible before hitting the road in mid October. #framebuilding #moving #ineedashop

Does missing a cross race count if I spend the day working on a cross frame? #framebuilding #steelisreal #crossiscoming (at Los Angeles Industrial Arts Compound)

Petrichor logos and clamps close up. These bars have a proprietary diameter of 25mm - so they will only fit the clamps they were made for, and cannot be used on other pursuit bikes without modification. #pursuitbars #framebuilding #petrichon

Petrichor branded Takhion/3TTT style pursuit bars. And a set of six clamps and three integrated steer tubes to build forks with them. It's been a long time coming. #framebuilding #pursuitbars #takhion #petrichon

Paragon sliding dropouts in the jig! Sometimes I take breaks from riding to build frames. Going with sliding dropouts just so I'm ready if I ever feel compelled to do SSCX with a belt. #paragonmachineworks #anviljig #crossiscoming

Check out those bars! The owner of this beautiful bike just sent me an update with the stitching done. If looks awesome, but mostly I'm just glad that this bike is being so well loved after being delivered. <3 #framebuilding #roadbike #steelisreal

The third Petrichor, built up by @goldensaddlecyclery and being delivered next week. I'm psyched with how this one turned out! Does anyone in LA know where I could get these bars some sewn leather wraps that match a honey Brooks saddle? #framebuilding #roadbike #steelisreal (at Los Angeles Industrial Arts Compound)

Some days I really hate having to decide between riding bikes and building them. Today was one of those days, but dang these fillets are starting to look good! #framebuilding #crossiscoming #buildlikeagirl (at Los Angeles Industrial Arts Compound)

The third Petrichor. Matte black with gloss black decals, which is hard to photograph! @jharber, you're going to love seeing this in person. #framebuilding

I love fillet brazing. And fillets! #framebuilding #filletbrazing (at Los Angeles Industrial Arts Compound)

Playing around with BB cutouts. #framebuilding #bottombracket (at Los Angeles Industrial Arts Compound)

I used to hate doing compound miters. Now it's a fun challenge! #framebuilding #cyclocross #steelisreal (at Los Angeles Industrial Arts Compound)

This should be ready just in time for CX season. #framebuilding #cyclocross (at Los Angeles Industrial Arts Compound)
