• SSWC10 Jeffson – Paul Larkin won the very special, one-off frame built by Jeff Anderson at Kiwibikes in Rotorua to celebrate 2010 Singlespeed Worlds, with a beautiful paint job by Warren ‘Spook’ Harvey. Paul has sold it on TradeMe for $2001 and all the money has gone to the Haemophilia Foundation of New Zealand, after Trade Me waived success fees. The offices of HFNZ were damaged in the devastating earthquake in Christchurch and their resources were severely affected. It’s a cause close to Paul’s heart. The buyer is James ‘Bomber’ Barnes from United Kingdom who lives in Belgium and was here for SSWC10. Thanks to Cameron at Mainfreight International for sorting out the freight to Belgium.
