A snowy week here in the Rockies. The 8" we got early in the week melted just in time for another 5" in last night's thunder-snow storm. A good time to work on a fillet sport bike with couplers.

I think I bugged Don long enough that he caved and sent me one of his pre-production benders. He's sending me the alignment bar shortly, but I was still able to do some nice S bends by eye-balling it. His stuff is almost too pretty to use.

A day of first's...first frame, attempt at painting, and FNL post! Hopefully many more to come.
So much new stuff it's crazy...
Everybody wants one, the PF30 adapter:
These too, the 44mm inset adapter:
The alignment bar for the benders:
Oh, what's going on here?
The new Fork Fixtures (back) are also nearing completion and shown here next to the old style base (front):
In progress carbon fiber cyclocross machine. Tubes have been mitered and bonded with epoxy adhesive. Tapered headtube for 1 1/8"-1.5" CX Fork and Press Fit BB30 bottom bracket shell. I keep the seat tube extra tall and will cut it off towards the end of the build process. Next step--> carbon fiber layup.
Drive side shot:
and the elusive rear end shot:
Whew. Okayallright. First post to FNL. And away we go.
1. Street Tracker. Streety track bike, decent clearances, while still retaining some tight geometry. Finish is a steel stain / patina with a clear over.
2. AllRounder. Cyclocross / light touring geometry. Yes, I messed up the fork, and I am making a new one. Measure 3 times, cut once. BUt dont measure three times and cut. And then forget that you cut, and cut again. Sigh.
Cool, thank you all.

The rock star is dying. And it's a small tragedy. Rock stars have blogs now. I have no use for that kind of rock star.
