My first steel bike was built in 1961 by Bill Grey who started in the 1930s and was foreman builder for the original Claud Butler. It is an incredible frame with extended lugs, that reflects his lifetime of bike building
fully built up no expense spared, perfect fit, as new, did not take long to find, all for £250 on eBay. Gravel bike geometry, takes massive tyres, so there is nothing new.
Sits in the garage next to a 1970s steel bike that has full first gen dura ace in perfect condition, also £250
I would love a Speedvagen, but for each one of these expensive designer bikes, save an old steel bike, the extra cost is probably no more than one of the extras!
Who knows it might ride surprisingly good and last another 50 years, and not be stolen when you leave it locked up outside
love your shop videos...one suggestion..you should include the shops contacts...email, website....whatever they have. place it under your camera gear list. thanks....and again...loving the videos.
I was riding my bike across USA a couple of years ago and in some small town, I can’t remember where, I saw a car with a fancy bike on top rack and it had a way crazy paint job. It was a Speedvagon. I had never heard of it but it was awesome looking
I love love love my Speedvagens. I'd only sell them so I could buy one of the latest ones. And Jenn is awesome to work with. Happy happy happy. (as you can tell, good things come in 3s).
what a great shop visit! would probably never of heard of this amazing bike brand and small business otherwise.
Sasha has been making big moves!
I sort of knew him years ago as we were couriers in Portland ( I still am)
And we both worked for Western Flash/world courier at different times.
those paint schemes were amazing. hands down🤝
OMG... That was awesome! My favorite custom builder! Great work!
I'd heard of Speedvagen before but not Vanilla when I watched this video when it first came out. Little did I know a few weeks later I'd be talking to Jenn and Sasha in London amongst a display of some of their bikes. Love the bikes! Thanks for the video
+hardboiledPhil awesome!
Damm I’m so in love with these bikes.. these cats know they craft too cool
They make beautiful bikes! I hope one day i will own one of their bikes.
OMG that mint Kawi KZ !
Somehow I hadn't head of them before but now I want one! I'm resisting the urge to look them up though because I already know I can't afford it haha
The most customized Speedvagens are outrageously expensive ($15k and more if you get every upgrade), but... the OG-1 and OG classics are just as good frame-wise, but a fraction of the price because they aren't custom-sized and don't have all the blingiest components and custom paint. If you can spend a bit extra, follow Jenn's advice and get the custom fit on a simpler build if you know you come in between the stock sizes. It's a good experience.
Same
Wild Outdoor Living check out the coverage from the NAHBS, Vanilla gets plenty of coverage and you’ll get sugar-sick from all the bike pr0n.
I was just there last month! Great people and I've got a speedvagen coming to me soon!
+Emmanuel Foret awesome! Which model?
Kit X mod with the super light tubing & carbon seat tube! Actually, Jenn just sent me some pictures of my frame post-fabrication. The whole Speedvagen experience is pretty amazing. Great video!
Sweet. Definitely a dream bike and Jenn rocks.
I would love to own a Vanilla but they are just out of my budget. I contacted Jen and she was really happy to ask me what I really wanted out of a bike. She talked to me about what it would take to get that and the cost. Then she gave me ideals on how to best save for it.
Ha. Jen is great!
Great short film, but now I want one of those bikes. You are to blame for my Brompton purchase ;-)
And you ain’t wrong my dude
I love this series!!
Woody! How 'bout that...how are you? Long time no see.
Super Maki Maki I like it
Maybe some day I'll be able to afford a Vanilla. Thanks.
Do they do folding bike for people over age of 60 years 😊
Great video! Really interesting! Keep up the good work!
so awesome!! great job!
Great Video
I really want one of their bikes now. These videos are dangerous for my bank account :)
why do I clicked this, now I dream having one
Where's Bicycle Crumbs?
Not allowed to disclose his identity on camera! Shhh.
so freaking cool!
Dream bikes for sure!
Ok why do so many of these manufacturers use those Chinese carbon integrated bar things?
Why the dislikes on this! Geez...!!!
#DeepCustom indeed.
SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICHESPIRALIDOSO!!!!!
No decals on the bikes and being all paint is most assuredly NOT unique to Vanilla or Speedvagen! To claim that is a bit arrogant.
She rides like a Kawasaki put that on my mommy
