annie's bike all done/winter is here!






well as you can see, winter is here! it just rained for two days, and snowed all day today, with more on the way! and, i must say, as a finished package this frame came out REALLY sweet. the way the top tube blends into the hand bent seat stays really works for me......that, and it's quite light, and with the sliding dropouts, versitile. what more could you want? and in a vast improvement, the detail pics of the brazes came out clear, giving you a good look at what i do oh-so-much, make things shiny! also, i'm putting out the request for action pics of all you coconino bike owners with your rigs, or of your bike in some cool locale for blog use. bring em' on! rock on, thanks for reading, steve.
