Co-Motion Mazama!
Many of you know my plight as a tall clyde trying to squeeze into a stock bike. For my anniversary gift, my wife gave me the, "OK" to purchase a Co-Motion Mazama!
I went in today for my professional fitting. Once Co-Motion creates the blueprints for the bike they will send them to me for approval. After that it will be about 8 weeks for them to manufacture the bike. I should be riding a "Big-Boy" bike by Halloween!
Here is a preview of the color "British Racing Green":

Whoa, AWESOME! After all those miles on the Trek, I think you definitely deserve it 
Are you going with the complete bike setup, or just the frame/fork?

excellent. Did you shop down there have a tester ride or are you going sight un-seen? I might have to take a drive down there.

Nice. Entertained a Co-Motion myself. I know it's not the point, but I'm curious what it weighs in at?

I don't know right now, but I can tell you in about 10 weeks. Bike weight was no consideration for me, as I need beefy parts. I won't be doing any racing anytime soon.

The owner of Co-Motion said they have made a few bikes for members of the Portland Trailblazers, and the shop in Clearwater recently built a bike for an Orlando Magic player.

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

How big of a frame did it spec out to?

I'd read a lot about the development of that bike in the Rivendell Reader. Used to be called the "bison," which I liked better, but a very, very nice bike just the same. Congratulations on having a wife who is kind to you.
