Mark Stonich Bikesmith Design 5349 Elliot Ave S Minneapolis MN 55417 (612) 824 - 2372 mark@bikesmithdesign.com http://www.bikesmithdesign.com Bikesmith is a true "Cottage Industry". Just one person in a well equipped basement workshop. After building bike frames and components, as a hobby, for 22 years, I retired from my day job in 2000. My new commute is 13 stairs. My new career is providing specialized metalworking and design services that are outside the scope of the typical bicycle shop. If you need "normal" repairs or parts, there are many fine bike shops in the area.
