Additional Info | As part of a marriage proposal, a local customer wanted to do something really special for his soon to be bride. Being that his special lady wasn't that into jewelry, and loved DH Bikes, he Approached us at The Garage about building a fully custom Santa Cruz V10 for her. Nearly every part of this bike is custom, down to the paint by Elbert Uber Lack (note: there are no decals on the frame - ITS ALL PAINT), the pedals and bar end caps by Twenty6 are custom engraved with the phrase: "Forever Loved". To add an element of surprise, this bike was secretly exchanged with her normal bike when they loaded the chairlift at Whistler and at the top he presented her with the bike and a ring.

I like the V10 man wasn't trying to copy your style… Purple is the new trend!

Thanks for the Bike of the Day! oh and we heard that she did say yes.
and yes the fork decals are inverted. put them on wrong, but then kinda liked it so I left them that way. just another part of the bike that make you really look twice.

True love would have included carbon rims and a tubeless set up ;-)
Nice build - could have rolled the zip tie ends to the inside once they were cut so it looks neater.
Nice paint job too!

I noticed that! But small thing to change right?

Did you do something special to prepare the carbon for painting? That's the only thing I can still do to mine
