Mobo Bike Build-Off

Mobo Bike Build-Off

We’ll pretty much race you at anything. Especially if it has ANYTHING to do with bikes.

Part of Mobo‘s annual fundraiser this year was a bike build where teams were challenged to assemble a bike with the highest integrity the fastest. Each team was given a bucket of parts, a stripped frame, and a few tools to do the job. Lined up against three other teams from bike shops, punk houses, and co-ops, Scott Pardi and I were ready to put our mechanical skills to the test.

We put our heads down, made a bunch of mistakes, took a few whiskey shots, and only twelve minutes later had built a ride that most people would have loved to own. Hot damn that was fast!

We were feeling pretty proud of our teamwork and the bike that we built. Especially when we were awarded this beaut!
