Everyone should already know about the Keirin Culture website, but did you know that Stratton has an actual shop now? He just opened the Keirin Culture bike shop in Roanoke, VA, and it's packed with the same beautiful NJS frames that he's known for, and a whole lot more besides, like frames from Ciocc, Casati, Alan and IRO, and the whole range of Kazane frames and wheels. Check out these pics of the shop:
Something is definitely happening in Roanoke. First Keirin Culture opens, then Kazane-sponsored Premier Sports Partners UCI pro road team decided to hold their spring training camp there, and soon a super-secret Yamaguchi-trained frame builder will be setting up his new shop there (more details on this soon). I'll be honest, I'd never heard of Roanoke till about 6 months ago, but it sounds like an interesting spot.
