Shadow and reflection in the magic hour, South Boston.
This year’s Philly Bike Expo is almost upon us, and with it the annual weight over what bike to bring to the show. This year I am bringing something a little different. Well, for Royal H anyway.

All painted up! Thanks Rudi!
Outboard fastback? Catching on at RHC.
The build of the century! Very pleased with how this came together.
So many more parts left to go on this one. Multiple day build for sure.
tires for days.
I’ve been needing one of these for a long time- a proper commuter! And this one is proper- full fenders, reflective rims, switchable generator lights, disc brakes, and slider dropouts so I can run it as a single speed when the Boston winter gets nice and slushy. But first a quick trip to the Philly Bike Expo!
New levels of ambition going on at Royal H Cycles. Never have I seen this much brass dust in one shop. Looking to have this done for the Philly Bike Expo- stay tuned! #filletbrazing #phillybikeexpo
New Royal H commuter added to the streets of Boston. This one’s a year rounder- you could literally spot it any time. This bike devours precipitation!
box lining! this bike is pure class. rudi jung with another winning paint job. more to come with this bike- it is PACKED with features.
the bike industry took a small break from electronic shifting during the early 2000s, but way back in the late 90s, mavic released a pretty (conceptually) awesome wireless rear derailleur- the mektronic. the royal h booth at last year’s philly bike expo saw an example from each era, and inspired much debate amongst attendees. nothing stirs conversation in the cycling community like electronic shifting. truly.
belt drive… dual cables running to the non drive side chainstay… this can only mean one thing- ROHLOFF! and this one is clean. check out more of eric baumann’s shots on the flickr. indoor shots. there is a blizzard going on out there.
well the new batch of royal h t-shirts are done! not quite in time for any specific holiday, but it’s always a good time to buy a t-shirt, so i’m thinking it doesn’t really matter.
as you can see, they are perfect for wheelbuilding, as well as other activities around the shop. big thanks to rudi for taking me under his silkscreen wing and staying late to churn these out. he is a true champion. also thanks to katty for the shots. if you would like to purchase one of these shirts, send me an email at bryan@royalhcycles.com. right now i have a lot of sizes, but i’ll be honest, i made mostly mediums. they’re $25 shipped. unless you live in another country. then they are $250. just kidding. but they are probably going to be more if you don’t live in the united states. happy holidays!
