its lugged, its steel. its not something ill be buying SOON but just a thought. ive youve any ideas on lugged steel frames all recommendations are appreciated.
I understand this isnt a fancy shmancy frame.
My Hillbrick is lugged and made with Zona tubing. I love the ride, it's not heavy and I expect to be riding this bike when I'm too old to turn the cranks. The job description I gave the frame builder specified all that and he chose Zona while having more expensive tubing to choose from. It's a good choice IMHO.
