Earlier this week on Singletrack.com, we got a sneak preview of a sweet, one-off, belt-driven Black Sheep titanium singlespeed headed east to the North American Handmade Bicycle Show in Richmond, Virginia.

Now, to whet your appetite for our upcoming coverage of more sweet bikes, we stole an advance look at some hybrid bamboo-carbon bikes built by Boo Bicycles. Just after finishing the final assembly of his show bikes, owner Nick Frey stopped by Singletrack.com to show off his creations before packing and shipping them for display. One of them was a custom, belt- singlespeed 29er mountain bike.

Check out more photos and the story of Boo Bicycles at Velonews.com.
