Much overdue congratulations to our friend, Casey Sussman of Mars Cycles, winner of the North American Handmade Bicycle Show People's Choice Award! Visit Redbeard Bikes to test ride this winning bike, and order your own!
Casey has built twenty-five handmade steel frames this year--all custom-built and sized.
Mars Cycles is based in Oakland, California, but the bikes can be seen on NYC streets. Check out Bicycling Magazine's interview with Meredith Klein, who's been riding a Mars since this summer.
