Three new builds over the weekend — first up is Toby's. Mint green lugs, tan sidewall tyres, and proportions that just work.

That seafoam green is a confident choice. Not bright enough to shout, not dark enough to hide — it sits in the sweet spot where colour adds character without dominating.

Vuelta wheels with tan sidewall tyres continue the considered aesthetic. The rubber colour complements the bamboo; the wheel graphics stay minimal. Everything belongs.

Slatted wood backdrop adds texture without distraction. The bike photographs well because someone thought about the setting as well as the build.

Weekends in the workshop produce bikes like this. Concentrated effort, shared learning, the satisfaction of finishing something significant in limited time.

Toby's mint green machine is first of three this weekend. The others await their moment. For now, this one deserves attention. 🌿
