As requested by many of our listeners, we sat down to talk about the making of Bryson’s custom hardtail frame under the supervision of legendary frame builder Paul Brodie. Yes, the Paul Brodie of Brodie Bicycles fame. We go through the process step by step, from the first meeting with Paul, to the course format and what to expect from a guided experience, to design principles and geometry decisions and all the way to the many iterations of the bikes throughout the years. We had a lot of fun reliving the experience and it was great to hear the highs, lows and everything in between of building a custom steel hardtail. With Fahrzeug Der Zukunft, Bryson continues to ponder the future of bikes, so the course definitely had more than one lasting effect!
