Tucker Adelman
Tucker arrived in San Francisco chasing his three loves west: Vietnamese food, bikes, and punk. He satisfies those needs daily, and often simultaneously while at work. We first met him as a customer, got to know him as a friend, and snatched him up as family as soon as he was available.
From the tiny coast of New Hampshire, Tucker took to the world's oceans for a year. He landed on the broad Pacific Coast of Santa Cruz to ride, study, and drum (specializing in garage and living room destruction). He made his way the final miles north to settle in the Bay Area, still surrounded by water and new and eager city streets.
A drummer for more than a decade, Tucker finds rhythm everywhere, and uses that pulse to keep our shop running. He monitors our inventory, designs bikes, is a willing (and natural) model, and generally makes sure each customer walks out happier than they walked in.
Tucker is the only staffer who has hugged Archbishop Desmond Tutu.
