Geoff puts his heart and soul into his bicycle frames: G. Duke Handmade Bicycles. This Flite Flow is the third saddle I've customised for Geoff all with his catchphrase raised around the saddle's back curve. It will be on display at SPOKEN: Australia's handmade bicycle show next month.

I just finished these two dog collar and lead sets for Jamie's two brown Staffordshire bull terriers, Myf and Tripod.

Declan's Baum Ristretto has seen a couple of paint schemes inspired by the design sensibilities of Sir Paul Smith. Some might say it's a bit overboard but we certainly had a lot of fun with both the saddle and the two piece saddle bag. The bar tape in white leather has perforation colours to match the saddle. The saddle in the last photo is after a few years riding the previous iteration of the Ristretto.
I covered a couple of full carbon fibre Mcfk saddles and made some 'monogram' bar tape for a Bikes Make Me Happy, a shop in South Korea. They are working with high end custom frames and components including Richard Sachs, No22 and Pegoretti.
