Watson Cycles




























































Andrew Watson gets it. His bikes are really nice! The red one is a 650b mountain bike. The snow bike has a really cool front rack designed to carry a sleeping bag. These bikes are some of many on display at the 2011 North American Handmade Bicycle Show in Austin.

Naked.

































































Naked. always has an impressive booth at NAHBS. The show stopper from naked. this year is the totally clean looking city bike. Axle nuts, seat binder bolts etc. were all concealed for a totally clean stripped down look. The finish was done by racking a torch across the raw steel before clear coating the frame.
