Like the story of Chromag, part of the key to North Shore Billet's success has been the symbiotic relationship between the two. Chris Allen and Peter Hammons, North Billet co-founders, met while working at another machine shop in North Vancouver in the early 00s. Through a circuitous turn of events, Peter and Chris' first client was Ian Ritz, who Peter had met when Ian's fledgling Chromag operation was looking for dropouts for the first 10 bikes they were producing. Those 10 dropouts turned into a 20-year working relationship and partnership that has seen Chromag and North Shore Billet grow and thrive. North Shore Billet began on Vancouver's North Shore but eventually moved to Whistler.
