Djb, Kuwahara made some excellent frames, and if not mistaken, became a cult brand with their appearance in the movie ET. On this frame I took a clue from a Bicycle Quarterly artical explaining roku, and all cable stops are slotted, which allows me to release the derailleur cables, and not the brake cables from their anchors should I need to remove the fork for travel. I never will, but the idea impressed me enough to make it super easy to do. Literally takes no more than 3 minutes to pull the bars and fork off the bike. Takes another 5 minutes to reassemble.

If you ever have the chance, build a frame on your own. The little things you can do to make it just exactly the way you want it are endless.
