INDEPENDENT FABRICATION - THE PURSUIT & THE OX

THE PURSUIT


What you see before you is a 2007 Independent Fabrication concept Pursuit Track Bike. This bicycle is the was voted BEST TRACK BIKE at the 2007 North American Handmade Bicycle Show despite its "illegal design’’ due to aerodynamic advantage. It was voted the best because of its amazing craftsmanship and overall concept execution. Indy Fab makes only high end custom bicycles; this Pursuit Bike is just an example of how they can push the limits of their craft.

THE OX


The OX was welded on Jan 1st 2009 (beginning of western calendar) and was finished on January 26th (beginning of the Chinese zodiac "year of the OX").

On the seat tube and seat is what we believe to be a translation of Independent Fabrication. I got the translation from a little old lady in Chinatown that is a great calligrapher, but I was a little wary of her translating ability. I'm sure I'll find out what it really means... eventually.
