Oh, I dont know. I think that's a Masi track frame, which isn't your run-of-the-mill hipster whip.

I'd like to get something like that done on a custom build-- not that fancy, but nothing too subtle, either-- with similar work on the seat cluster, head lugs and stem.

I think the link between double guns and lugged steel bicycles is stronger than many would think. Both are handmade, both functional, both elegant and I think that everyone here would agree that the really good stuff has a personality all its own.
