About Me

My photo
Back in my hometown of Jonesboro., Arkansas, United States
My name is Dimitri Harris and I have been building frames for over 9 years now. I learned the basics after spending two weeks with Koichi Yamaguchi. He is one of the most interesting people I have ever met and I am thankful to have worked with him. Since then I have just been building one frame after another and learning as much as possible along the way. I build steel fillet-brazed frames that go by the name of MEECH, which is an old nickname that I have had since I was a kid. I build mostly cyclocross frames because I love their versatility however I also do road,single-speed, and mountain bikes as well. Custom frames start around $1400. All the frames are handmade by me here in Jonesboro, Arkansas. I am insured and guarantee all of my work so if you are in the market for a custom steel frame I would be glad to build it for you. I am also building frames from carbon fiber so if you would like to ride a prototype frame give me a shout. Thanks for stopping by. You can email me at meech151@hotmail.com or call (870)897-6703 or visit www.meechcustombicycles.com Thanks.

Yancey on the Move

Here is a shot of Yancey at a cross race this past weekend in Fayetteville.  He and his teammates from BMC had their annual training camp ride on Saturday and then with a cross race happening on Sunday there was no way LY was gonna pass that up.  Larry would rather take a beating than miss a race.  Anyway, the promoter managed to work the BMX course into the cross course and so I'm sure it made for an interesting ride.  I believe Yancey finished a solid fourth overall.  Branton Moore was also racing his MEECH right alongside of Yancey.  It was his first ride back on the MEECH since we fixed his seat post and he said everything felt solid.  I'm lucky to have such cool guys out there racing on my bikes.  If I ever when the lottery I will pay you guys a couple hundred thousand a year just to race my bike.  Its a huge thrill for me to see you guys out there sporting the MEECH logo.  Thanks for the hard efforts.

Also, I'm not sure who gets credit for this photo.  I stole it off the Arkansas Outside's FB page.  So anyway, to whomever this photo belongs I thank you for taking it and I give the full credit to you.  Nice shot man!

  1. Thanks for the credit. Just one of many shots we got that day (quite a few of Larry). We'll have them posted on http://www.ArkansasOutside.com on Tuesday. Great Race. Larry was already getting excited about race possibilities for next year. Might have to talk to you someday about a CX frame. If it's good enough for LY it's good enough for me.
