Maybe... I have the frame/fork from Doug's brazing class (we made a Dutch style bike as his Ukrainian project uses, and no the rumors of Doug being called to testify before congress are false
) that is still unfinished. I just don't have the time to add the braze ons… The class was in 2008.
I have had frames (that were completed) take a few years before. My 3-speed started as a hub scavenged from Geo Rennies Bicycle Shop in about 1980, the bike was on the road by 2006. Then there's the projects not even started but have been moved with me many times. Andy
