fameandspear: Biking Brisbane - Ewen Gellie (Gellie Custom). The third of Gavin’s interviews that he did was with Ewen Gellie of Gellie Custom. Ewen started out as quite a successful MTB racer in the mid to late 80s and then moved onto building custom frames. Ewen bases his framebuilding around bikes that are going to be sensible yet still retaining elegance. Ewen works out of a small garage out in Kangaroo Ground, which for those of you not in Melbourne is about an hours drive from the CBD. It’s very secluded and quiet out there - a great place to be building custom frames I reckon!Gavin’s video interview can be found here and more photos from my visit to Ewen’s workshop can be found on my Flickr. And you can also find a sum-up of the three interviews on Biking Brisbane done by Gavin himself.I’d just like to say a big thank you firstly to Gavin Bannerman for asking me to help him out with photos for his trip. I really enjoyed the opportunity and it was rad to get such an insight into a range of framebuilders in my own home town. And I’d also like to say another hearty thank you to Tristram and Scott, Daryl Perkins and Ewen Gellie for taking the time out of their day to let Gavin and myself spend some time with them and in their workspace. Enjoy! -- source link
