Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

I just called Vanson and the person I spoke to said they were looking to have more Granite Roma by the end of the year. Also super helpful about answering questions about sizing as well. Lesson learned, the telephone will be my sole point of contact with Vanson going forward.

They actually have a size 46 Maverick in Granite Roma in stock if anyone is interested.

I agree. I had good results speaking with them on the phone. Then once I established a relationship with Anthony, email worked pretty well for certain situations. Great people and great company!

I’ll do a proper write up and post better pics soon, but I have to share my initial excitement that my custom Chopper made of Cedar Bainbridge arrived today and it’s perfect.

That looks amazing! Perfect fit too! How does the leather feel?

I really like the leather. It’s smooth and somewhat shiny but I think this will dull with time. I wouldn’t complain if it was a bit thicker, but it doesn’t need any breaking in, which is nice (I’ve had plenty of long break-ins and don’t mind a change of pace).
Most importantly, I think this leather will develop character quite quickly. I already put some miles on the jacket today, and it’s very comfortable on the bike.
