THIS!!

Ben Farver is one solid fella. I love this promo with Aether Apparel!

Enjoy. Get pumped. Go ride. Go create!

I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Ben and checkout out his work space. He’s a super down to earth dude and his workspace is filled with amazing space bikes. He started the conversation with “So, what do you want to know?”. Super simple question and I really didn’t know where to start. Creating carbon bikes from scratch blows my find. It’s all too mystical for me to really understand, and that’s what I told Ben. He responded appropriately with “Yes, It’s really just magic”. After a quick giggle he brought out this rad book that shows how the designs are mapped out on a sheet of carbon, cut and molded. Creating carbon bikes still blows my mind… but I understand a bit more than I did before.  Case and point… Argonaut bikes are custom and rad from start to finish.

It was also great to show up to Ben’s shop and see out skatedeck properly perched for mid day thrash sessions! And… out of all the stickable tool drawer space in his shop… only our 3×9 FOLLY die cut sticker was stuck!   

Thank so much for letting me pick your brain a bit and check out your shop Ben! I’m very thankful for the support and level of creativity you bring to the cycling community!  Cheers
