I was actually thinking, insanely as usual, about starting a frame building deal that would be frames with all custom made lugs. eliminating the design constraints of lugs coming only in certain sizes. This isn't a new idea, so it can be done - In Italy at least. The main problem I saw was how to get even badly paid for building 2.5 bikes. First one tigs a small frame together, then one cuts it up, carves it into lugs, does finish work on the inside, and then starts building a lugged bike. All in order to avoid the pitfalls of a Tig bike, which at it's heart it still is... It's this lack of a cheery can-do attitude that is keeping me poor...
