    Answer to your question is 'yes', i always follow the link to your blog. didn't know they had peaches out in AZ ... thought it'd be too cold in the winter for that.

    Ha! that went away - my buddy BW is making BOB trailer liners and other things for Bike Trailer Shop | Bicycle Cargo, Travel, and Pet Trailers and also "handlebar buckets" and mesh critter bags. He totally ditched the Messenger bag idea. Maybe when I slow down I'll heap it on the pile of all the cool things I want to do!
    Thanks - Garro.

    I always get pegged as building "heavy" bikes, why I don't know - maybe the touring bikes?
    So I got a scale. The 26" bike with Paul dropouts which will last for a lifetime = 4.13lbs.
    29er for a 180lb endurance racer, will also last a lifetime = 5.1lbs
    whadda you guys think? - Garro.

    What do I think?
    I love your framesets, and those 2 are killer.

    I'm interested in things you do to make them last a lifetime. Can you explain a little?
    Generalities are fine, please don't give away any 'secret sauce'.
    Ha!

    Ha!
    Hey - Thanks! it's just the little things, I reckon - shoving 1/2 a rod of brass into the end of each stay at the dropout, and using only slightly thicker headtube stock for big bikes - that kind of stuff. Bigger fillets. Seat tube sleeves. H2O diamonds. Little things that amount to crossing your "t's' and dotting your "i's". I reckon I could drop an easy .5lb off almost every frame but what about longevity and reliability? it's not the fastest guy who wins the race - it's the 1st guy to the finish line.

    the 26" had tubing that would not be out of place on a road bike - .7mm toptube, .8/.5/.8mm DT, 36.5mm OD headtube, .9/.6mm stattube, 1/.7mm CS's and "secret sauce" SS's

    A 29er has the same, but maybe only .2mm thicker throughout - evey .7/.4/.7mm 29er out there is ripe for bustin'.

    Shop guy EP just built a Kaisei/HJ lugged track bike that comes out at 1.16 kilo - dang!

    - Garro.

    Columbus' "29er" tubeset is 7/4/7 and I'm constantly tempted to build myself one and see how it holds up.

    With an ATC of <42.5cm you would be OK - stick a 50+cm ATC on there & no garro-ntees........

    Now that I look at the Bringheli page again I see the dt is 7/6/7 and the tt is 7/5/7. I may try it out for a new non suspension single speed.

    Nice of you to be your own test subject rather then your clients!
