My husband got his SRAM groupset from GVH. That's your BF? DH speaks very highly of his experience with GVH (and we both like drooling over the shop's frames).Quote:

The "shop" is contained in our 2 car garage (that's the parts warehouse) and the studio apartment above (his workshop and office). It's really fun to watch new frames and parts come in. And I love watching him build bikes, especially wheels.
We've been living together for a year now and this will be the first of my bike builds that I will actually be able to help with hands-on. I'm pretty excited.
It's been really fun to help him with things as well. He offers bike fitting now (that's one of my skills) for people that want to come to the shop to pick up their bikes. It's so great to see the looks on their faces when they see their new bike in person for the first time.
Sweet. Will be watching for build pics!
I am so OCD I am not sure I could do a build. It took me over two weeks just to narrow down how I wanted Industry Nine to do my wheels. Thankfully they are the only ones who make purple hubs or it would have been probably 4 weeks!
