Sheldon Brown dies at 63

I am saddened and shocked to learn of the death of Sheldon Brown, Sunday, at the age of 63. For those of you who have read this blog from the start, you’ll know that Sheldon’s website at sheldonbrown.com was one of the primary resources I used in learning how to repair the Bike of Doom. Without his article on building a home-made fixed-cup removal tool, I’m sure the Bike of Doom would be in the junk pile by now, or I’d be spending every weekend overhauling the bottom bracket. Of course, he may not have been pleased to learn that… he wasn’t fond of department store bikes.
More information can be found at the Harris Cyclery Website.
