I’m always amped to work with new cameras and this FujiFilm X-E2 with Fujinon 35mm f/1.4 lens is killing it!! Well… that in conjunction with VSCO, I’m set up with a truly mobile photo shooting/editing lab via two wheels!!
Go to FOLLY x DIGITAL to check out the other shots I nabbed last night.
Also… if you wanna lurk My Grid feel free to do so.
RIDE x CREATE
IT IS HERE!!!
“I spent a lot of my younger days camping in the woods near home, backpacking in the Appalachian Mountains and learning just what I needed for survival and even comfort. Countless hours spent geeking out about lightweight and ultralight camping equipment, reading blogs and sites. This heavily influenced the way I approach designing frames and even how I tackle a route” – Joshua Bryant
Go to Cycles J Bryant and read all the details on this bad ass NFD and how you can pre-order yours!! So much heart and soul put into this creation!! Such a RAD machine!!!
I couldn’t wait any longer! Here’s a sneak peek of our collaboration with Cycles J. Bryant (Joshua Bryant) in all of its raw unbuilt beauty! This one (my personal ride that will be featured this weekend at the Detroit Bike City Expo) is the 700 x 45c version called “FaTRoB Steve” with the FOLLY x Bryant custom Venom’esk flat black paint and white hand drawn decals! I can’t wait to build up this handbuilt Get Rad Machine!! There are two other models we will offer in the limited FOLLY x Bryant colorway called FaTRoB Dixie and L’iL FaTRoB, make sure to check those out.
After Joshua displays the Get Rad Machine in all of its glory it will be shipped, build, and ridden all over the land!! Also… as I’m sure you could imagine, I will do an indepth breakdown after I get my hands on it. Check out the vibe of the FaTRoB in Joshua’s own words
“You remember that feeling you had as a kid when you swung a leg over your bike and blasted off towards your friend’s house linking cul-de-sacs and unfenced yards and dirt trails to get there? Or how you felt that first day you rode 10, 20, 50 or 100 miles? I wanted to design a road bike that reunited me with those feelings of freedom and exploration starting from the ground up. I came to the drawing board (literally) with no preconceived notions on what this type of bike should look like, but I thought about how I want the bike to respond to the riding that I grew up doing and find myself gravitating towards again. Kind of like if you took a CX bike, Randonneur, and go-fast Road bike and ran them over with a steam roller. Take that hunk of iron and produce one bike that could do it all. An adventure bike without equal. A Fat Tired Road Bike, or FaTRoB as I like to call it. All the necessary features and nothing you don’t. A feeling of youth you could grab in bike form for just $1950 frame and fork.” – JBryant
The FOLLY x Bryant collaboration FaTRoB will be available for pre-order purchase next week. I’ll post ordering details then. Make sure to follow us on Instagram with #getradmachine to check out all the rad that will be this ride!! I hope you guys are as pumped as we are! This 100% designed, hand built, and Made In America beauty is going to be so. RAD!!! Cheers!!

The more I look at Joshua Bryant’s work the more I fall in love. There’s something to be said with 100% hand crafted bicycles and Joshua nails it.
“It is my aim that the CF Project will disappear beneath you, becoming but a beautiful tool to realize your dreams of the freedom that wandering, camping, spirited riding with friends and longer distances bring.” – JBryant
