hi there, nathan. i’m writing to ask you what the make and model of the rear rack and basket is that’s installed on the bike shown in the picture you submitted for eco velo’s “endless summer” photo contest.
david, it’s actually two separate pieces. the rear rack came with the bike from the builder (jitensha.com). then i just attached a basket made by wald. cheap plastic zip ties, about 10 of them with any excess snipped off, hold the two pieces together without any rattling or other problems…thanks for visiting the site!
jonathan…thanks for stopping by and for the kind words. i haven’t lifted a golf club in a few years! let me know if you’re ever out my way. you can email at the address above.
Was that you at Orange 20 bike shop in Los Angeles last week? I noticed your Ebisu and said “beautiful”. Here I am a few days later randomly linking to your blog through my best friend’s and I recognized your bike…or one that’s quite like it.
Nice Ebisu, here’s a shot of mine: http://tiny.cc/6NuhK

Hi Nathan,
Very nice blog. You and I played golf together with Peter several years ago. Perhaps we can ride together one Friday.

parker/ an ebisu sighting in LA. cool! it’s not mine though. i think esteban (velo-flaneur) has ordered one. there’s probably quite a few down south.
