Josh is an animal!!! I met him last year, he is a super nice guy. When he sprinted it was like a rocket took off.

Thanks, the downtube is almost teardrop shape, except it has a strange bottom edge.

Is Josh Weir the American Flag guy?

That bike looks amazing. If I wasn't desperately poor, and if I actually stood to gain anything from a $2000 frame, that's exactly what I'd want, right down to the Wound-Up fork.

Howdy,
Sprinters like smaller bikes for stiffness. up stems put them in their proper position.
Ask the painter on the 2nd issue...

I think it's two American-flag trispokes and a red, white and blue Cannondale track bike. It's really something else.
