Any indication of the tubing used for this frame? (Katakura Silk) I agree with others this Silk is very nice. The reason I am asking is I have a very similar one in Red I am currently building up and I suspect Tange 1 tubing although my fork is different than yours...the braze-on's on mine are on the front of the dropout and I have a water bottle mount on the bottom of the downtube as well.....great looking bike though and I had mine built before and the reason I am redoing it is because the ride was too good! I needed to upgrade the components some to appropriately spec it out the way it deserves to be built because it'll be a keeper for me.
