This is a short documentary about two Brits building bikes in a garage. Figured this was the right place for it. I know some of us enjoy watching this kind of thing,

I like the "garage aspect" of these guys.
Their headbadges are pure "industrial" look.
Downhill hardtail????

The other video on their website has less of a filmmaker esthetic, but is fascinating and more interesting I think, since you learn more about the bikes, and it includes some nice riding scenes. These are real garage guys.

Great little video to watch over my coffee. Those guys are living the dream!

I've also been impressed with the quality of the free Pinkbike videos lately. Thanks Dan, for the link.
