Got Michael's frame back - racer green with gold sparkle topcoat - this will be a stock color - it ROCKS.
Some bikes just nail the lines, and this is one of them - a 650B x 100mm travel.
Long & low, not made for slow.
Excellent clearance on this frame, room for a 2.5" with clearance no sweat.
On to Brad A's frame after the one I'm working on now - like I said, pics scrambled.
Some shop tips - a DIY butting gage reader.
And, how to move big things solo - this is hard to move, solid steel base, but with a simple rod underneath I can shove it across the room in a wheelchair with a small shove.
I get sent lots of things - it makes my day! I got some Luck today - Thank You!
I need all I can get, here is what I'm looking at right now - A shelf of Luck - imagine how screwed I'd be without all this luck - there are some bad-ass things in there, each with a unique story.
I also got a really cool looking book, it's next on the reading pile. Who are you, and thanks allot -
I LOVE books.
He-Man brazing rig. Get your fire on!
Tight!
These big head tube brazes are done with a Victor #3 and 3/32nd rod
Above, mono-braze, below, a tight bead.
Checking clearances. Nice clearance for a 2.35 x 29er no problem.
Tight fit-ups. These are all for David M's 29er.
Coco-Motos all diet'ed out.
That's it for now, all - thanks so much for reading!

Those horizontal dropouts, are they custom or can anyone get them?
Nope.
just for me & my clients.
You do some very nice work! I learned on full size drawings, and I figured I'd just continue that way. It's nice to know it's still done that way professionally.
