Ira Ryan (
www.iraryancycles.com) in Portland, OR makes beautiful bikes, and is a major cycling enthusiast of his own. When I decided to have a cross bike built, I talked with several builders, and Ira's love for cycling was so infectious, there was no question.
My petite little 5 foot 2 wife had a 78 Super Cab restored, and picked out original colors from 78 that hadn't been used together when she had it painted. I gave Ira the paint codes to match my cross bike to her truck

Here are a couple shots...
