I’ve been talking about doing this for a long time, but I finally pulled the trigger today on a 2009 Giant Bowery. I’d been holding off for a while since I already had a fixie (remember the huf and smoovebert trick stars?) and a shadow conspiracy/invisible:man cruiser for gettin’ around town bikes. Well, I finally sold both of them and am replacing them with a 2009 Giant Bowery, whose black and chromeness just begs for the 1989 Haro Team Master/Sport graphics treatment, which as you can tell from the Photoshop mockup above, is going to be dope. Yes, the 700cmx is definitely and shamelessly derived from DQM Dave’s dqm x trackstar builds from a few years back.

Dave Ortiz’ bike can be found outside Epstein’s, if you want to see it up close.
