The 2008 edition of the North American Handbuilt Bicycle Show was held in Portland, Oregon. The bikes that we displayed at the show were all actual customer bikes whose owners generously allowed us to show them at NAHBS before taking delivery of their bikes. Among the bikes in the booth was the debut of the new JK Special. We also had an unpainted frame on display which provided a glimpse of the craftsmanship that lies below the paint jobs. Of course, Joe Bell’s crisp and creative paint work was a big hit as well.
We enjoyed meeting many customers, enthusiasts and friends, as well as taking in the other fine work represented at the show.
Exhibitors selected their picks for the top bikes in several different categories, and we are proud that a Kirk Frameworks frame won the prize for best fillet brazed bicycle. The custom frame was made to order for a customer in Miami, Florida.
We'd like to extend a special thank you to our customers who allowed us to bring their bikes to the show!
