Local NAHBS winner- Bilenky Cycles

(photo from NAHBS website)Bilenky Cycles won "Best Lugged Frame" at the North American Handbuilt Bicycle Show over the weekend. Sure that picture above does not show the lugs or anything, just a little group shot, but I am very happy that Simon is building my custom bicycle for Paris-Brest-Paris, with custom handcut polished stainless lugs.
