Howies Argos podcast

Ever fancied a peak inside one of Britian's last remaining frame building workshops? In the second in their series of podcasts on British craftsmen Howies have visited the legendary Bristol-based frame builders, Argos.

Argos have been going for 36 years and are still as busy as ever, custom building may not be the biggest part of their business any more, but they are still making them custom frames range from £1,000 to £1,500 – these days they're mainly building Audax and light touring bikes. The main source of business is frame renovation – particularly fixeds.

Well worth checking out – some great pics and an interesting listen.
