And they (he really, John Bosevski) do a great job. Heck, he can even do some simple pantographing or cutouts and he is a good framebuilder too. A local hero if you will.
I'm not 100% on this but I'd be very surprised if John wasn't making
these chainrings for the Melbourne Fixte mavericks Fyxomatosis. see >>

A lot of local track riders have chainrings panto'd with their own nicknames. Tacky but very cool too. I can see a real need for some G.S. Pergolizzi chainrings !!!
Given that our AUD$ has seen a dumping against your greenback lately I'd reckon that you'd cats would be crazy not to consider having some chainrings made up.
Disclaimer: I haven't even met the guy ... just seen his stuff in use and listened to the praise from riders and other shop owners. Maybe I should ride down to his shop and say G'day, eh?
