Shame. I suspect it's a parts issue. If you saw his display at the Philly Bike Expo you probably saw the bike he's been building for my ex. We saw the frame at the shop over the summer after it had been partially welded. Problem is that he cannot get the high end SRAM group she wants. Mine is 2016 vintage. Present to myself for paying off the mortgage in only 11 years. No parts shortages back then. His shop is amazing. It's in his parents' former carpet cleaning business. He has a different machine for each part of the bike. One of his lathes is from the Department of the Navy. And he makes his own dropouts now with the CNC mill he acquired around the time he was building my frame.
