Chad Grice hails from Victoria, BC and races cyclocross as well as road, and XC. During the day he’s an elevator guy and during the evening and weekends, HE. RIDES. BIKES. He currently has six bikes in his stable and this very inspired Super Jake is the showpiece of his collection.
It started as a frame and fork that was a prize at the annual Kona Kup as part of the amazing Cross on the Rocks Cyclocross Series. “I didn’t win it, however, I was able to acquire it from the winner. I love pink bikes and I had my previous cross bike custom painted pink and black. When I saw this frame I knew I had to get it. “
“I wanted to build the bike to be my cx race bike however, it will start life as a gravel racer. When I got the frame in the work stand I knew I wanted this bike to have everything I ever wanted in a cross bike and have all the pink highlights. It started with electronic shifting and grew from there.”
