late night build on Jim's road bike.

got Jim's Kaisei tubed roadbike back from paint yesterday - SWEET! i've always liked orange bikes. i've already built Jim a 29er last year, so i'm dialed in on his "super custom" geometry - low standover, long toptube and high bars. comfort first!
a detail of the cool dropouts i came up with and Cody providing moral support.

nearing completion near 9pm! it took us a long time to modify the dura-ace barcon shifters to fit the ends of the titec h-bars. all dura-ace with Ritchey compact cranks and a woundup fork. gonna try and get Simon's bike all brazed up today - Steve.
