Austin Russell of Russell Makes isn’t our typical guest on this show. He has taken a framebuilding class and built a bike frame, but more notably, he has built thousands of wheelsets at Velocity USA and for the last few years he has been running the rim factory. Austin has rolled every Velocity rim that has come out of the Grand Rapids, Michigan facility and his job has him covering all parts of the rim manufacturing process from rolling, cutting, drilling, machining, and on to anodizing. Austin also bought my old CNC milling machine and has been making really cool things with it. We also talk about some of his fun bike projects like the Skim Bike Competition and Wheelie Wanderer.

Check out Austin’s website, follow him on Instagram, and definitely check out Wheelie Wanderer.
