Fraudster ripping off DIY tutorials

Nothing pisses me off more than somebody trying to pass off others' work as his/her own. 

A scammer on Instructables posted on of our DIY tutorials, claiming it as his/her own. 

Send a message to this fraudster and report him/her. http://www.instructables.com/id/SpinScooter/

"Once in awhile I get the urge to create a new wild and crazy cycle based on some idea from the many sketches I've collected over the years..."

***

Look familiar? That's because it's ripped off directly from our AtomicZombie DIY tutorials!

 
This fraudster even took the time to remove our AtomicZombie.com watermarks on every picture.


Send a message to this fraudster and report him/her. http://www.instructables.com/id/SpinScooter/

Report this fraudster to Instructables: copyrightagent@autodesk.com

Thanks to our worldwide bike building community for being vigilant and revealing these fraudsters.

Velo project update & newsletter



Progress has been a bit slow due to extreme cold weather and a very untidy basement that's limited our velo project workspace. But, rest assured fellow bike builders - an update on the velo project will be unveiled very soon, maybe even today.

And, a new issue of the AZ bike builders newsletter will be online in the next couple of days. We have an exciting announcement coming soon, so stay tuned!
