Q&A with Ben Farver of Argonaut Cycles from Mission Workshop on Vimeo.

Ben Farver is one nice fella. He is making/pushing to make the best bicycle, all unique in and of itself, just for you!  How rad is that!!  And… Mission Workshop was kind enough to host him and his very classy bicicleta as he answered a few questions from you nice folks.

Thanks Mission Workshop and Ben Farver for being American Made and very rad!!  Cheers to you both.

This is going to be good!

Ben Farver has been a big supporter of FOLLY (purchased a skate deck even).  You lucky SF folks get to pick Ben’s brain a bit with a Q & A sesh followed by food and booze!  WOO! If you’re in the area, sounds like you should go ahead and make plans to be there.

OH!!!  And, Mr. Brian Vernor will be taking snaps of the event!  That’s never a bad idea.

“Carbon-fiber bicycle frames have lost their luster. Most are being pumped out like Pez on some far-off production line from a one-size-fits-all mold.” –  Jim Merithew 

Not good ol’ Ben Farver.  He started out working with steel but found to many limitations with the material of the gods… So, he started using alien technology to meet his creative demands and assembled an American made space age speed machine that will benifit the world from now until the end of time.

Head over to WIRED Magazine and check out the other cool words they used to describe Argonaut Cycles.
