Now that Baylis is seriously nasty. Just needs the light parts repainted pink and the darker bits gotta be purple and bam! Ugliest bike of the world.
The rear end of the Vanilla look fantastic. BTW, it will look orthodox from the side, won't it? Curvy left to right, not up and down. Anyway, the seatstay bridge really tops it off.

The Hetchins is sick while the much more adventurous and clean (re: Joe Bell) Baylis is disgusting? Backwards logic, much?!

As for the Vanilla, nice fillets. It takes a fillet brazer to recognize nice work.

there would be something really cool about just clearcoating that vanilla. i think bikes like these almost deserve a new catagory like "art bikes" or something, cause thats really what they are.

I'd ride that Baylis from to hell and back! For some reason, seafoam and hunter green appeals very much to me.
The fork crown lugs are a little too LOTR.

Ooh. Sweet paint is my favorite! And yes, post some pics in the sticky after the show. I, sadly, will not be attending.

Okay, the bike's ****ing gorgeous - that's a given ... but after spending that much money, what made you opt for the second most expensive Brooks saddle available instead of just going for the Swallow?

i saved for a year to buy this bike. i was literally constantly thinking stupid thinigs like "no sour cream on my burrito because it will save money for my bike."
so saving $200 on a saddle was actually a huge deal for me. it was hard enough for me to be a cheap-fucck for a year, to justify an additional $200 for my rear end.
