Brandon King

Trophy sales-mech BK was born in a blizzard just south of Canada, a.k.a. Watertown NY., then came straight to Philadelphia via the Adirondacks and Everglades, Casper, Wyoming, Southern Carolina, Southern California, and er, the Bahamas.

Arriving with little more than an Hecho in Mexico Fender Jazz Bass, Brandon now has more Surlys than hands: a Long Haul Trucker rigged with cruiser bars, friction shifting and Schwalbe Big Apple tires, a Surly Cross Check fixed out for city survival, and, STOP PRESS--possibly the first Surly Troll to float over Philly's blacktop.

When not repairing, explaining or riding bicycles, Mr. King supports Arsenal and enjoys classic electro-mechanical amusement table devices, er--short-flipper pinball. He is Trophy's only staffer with extensive commercial fishery experience.
