ATB Dreams: Sklar PBJ X01 Complete
We try to offer builds that show the best of what these frames can do and the X01 build certainly does that. Mechanical efficiency for a worry-free, low maintenance, riding-focused bike.
This Performance Basket Jammer is staying right here in the bay area with Peter and is going to be a super fun bike for exploring all the dirt roads, singletracks and pavement connectors in between. The PBJ really is a fun anywhere bike but it sure is nice here in the bay.
For years I have been trying to come up with a cute phrase to sum up the Sklar ethos, something that captures the spirit of a bike like this. It doesn't have the latest and greatest tech, but obviously it has super nice parts on it that were chosen for a reason. I think they journey for a lot of Sklar riders starts on a budget-friendly metal bike, leads them through the industries pyramid to a carbon super bike before they come back to a high-end metal bike with a simpler build that is easy to take care of, will last a long time. I have been liking "Thoughtful Bikes" because of that, but recently I thought of "Casually Serious". Sure I just put months of thought and lots of money into my bike, but it is just for fun. Maybe that's it? I don't know.
Anyhow that is enough philosophical spiraling for now. Here are some photos of Peter's beautiful build. Hope you have a great weekend!
