Random pictures of Douglas's World Tourer.

All freshly brazed, very hot & covered with flux.


Raw headtube brazes, still fluxed.


Ditto on the BB.


Now, shiny & smoooooth - yum.


Braze-on ready, fully polished.


Ovalized brace/fender mount.


Seattube sleeve/lug seat tube junction fully polished out.


Custom kickstand mount/fender mount.


Surly "nice rack" with custom seat collar mounting - the thickest part of the bike, an excellent mounting point for the rear rack. Bomber & re-tap-able to any thread in any country.


The Surly front "nice rack" - this is the nicest front rack I have ever seen, by far. What an excellent mounting system!


That's it for now, folks - picking up Justin's frame/fork/rack from paint tomorrow, prep & ship on that, All the parts are here for Chris's 29er, just needs assembly, new pricing scheme on touring bikes and un-filed frames, and a full build queue status upcoming in the next few days along with more news & such. - Thanks so much for reading & all the continued patience and incoming orders! - Steve.

surly makes bomber racks. i have logged some long miles over ridiculously rough terrain, fully loaded, and have never heard a peep out of them.

hope things are well with you and yours.
