Tommy Fandango

Tommy Fandango

by Brody Keyworth on June 09, 2021

Brody has a passion for 26” Steel frame 90’s mountain bikes. He was constantly browsing local marketplaces to find the ideal size bike for his good friend. What he found was the perfect candidate: a 90’s Shogun Trail Breaker 1 with a gorgeous splatter paint job.

The idea was to turn a long and low mountain bike into the ultimate city cruiser bike. The finished product was the ideal inner city cruiser, comfortable for any path, road or gravel track while being capable to cart around shopping and cold drinks (read: beers).
