  • Ron 

In between trips, I’m still catching up on news. With another NAHBS in the books, however, here’s the list of award winners from the 2015 show in Louisville.

RIDING DISCIPLINE DIVISION

Fully complete bikes, paint and component choices factor into the judging (aesthetic impact and correctness of the discipline)

CONSTRUCTION DIVISION

Construction categories: All bikes presented for the construction categories (lugged, fillet-brazed, TIG-welded and carbon layup) are presented as naked frames. To make the frames easier to inspect, they are presented with a fork, headset and stem. Painted bikes are deemed ineligible.

OVERALL DESIGN DIVISION

Theme: These are complete bicycles with a description of the theme, concept or heritage the frame builder is portraying. These bicycles will be judged with an eye toward the overall execution of the theme.
