Keri - your bike is creeping towards completion!

here she sits all brazed up - heck, Keri already knows what it's gonna look like, as it's geometrically identical to her 1-speed she got about 40-something Coconinos ago, down to tubing selection. it's nice to know you nailed something spot-on enough that someone want another *just like it*

these "figure 8" brazes slay me........they are just about the hardest, probably because i don't do them every day...........

seat tube cluster before i have at it........

and after a few hours of hand-polishing - Steve's eye view! smoooooth.........

super minimal finishing needed on the stay ends - i just hit the spearpoint bevels.

Nate T's soon to be frame........


more later, i'm gonna skip biking today and try to get Keri's bike off to paint & get Nate's frame done before we split for a four day break kayaking. Keri: your Phil BB will NOT work. a longer spindle will be needed for the VBC cranks {which look SWEET!} do you ant a new one? Steve.
