Here's my photo contribution to DD's post above. While he was scarfing down breakfast, I tried to pick apart his bike, hoping to find some flaw to make public... failed. He must spend a fair amount of time on each peice, because I could not find anything that wasnt perfect. The frame is a beauty, with chromed fork, stays, AND headtube. It has some cool features, and one that I have never seen before is this cable routing through the chain stay.
The paint work on the levers and crank arms is awesome. Great skills
This has to be one of(if not THE) best looking gear changers. One day I'll have one
DD was on course to break the world record for fastest tube swap.... instead, he broke the valve stem in half. Talk about shear brute strength.
Here's the obligatory pumpkin shot
It was a good ride, along with some good bike talk. And thanks for lunch, Jeff.
