This week we talk to Tyler Reiswig of Btchn Bikes in Chico California. Tyler’s work is ambitious and interesting. We talk about how he grew up with a TIG torch in his hand and how he learned to build bicycles more recently - how parts of it were easy and parts of it were not because of this background. We talk about a bunch of specific projects he has done, like a carbon fiber rando fork and the dropouts he builds. I really wanted to talk to Tyler about the value of community and how helpful it must be to be in Chico with the Paul Component crew, ex-Mountain Goat workers, and having recently had a shop near Mitch Pryor of MAP Bicycles before the tragic fire burned it down. We also discussed CAD software and its application to framebuilding and design.
