Alas a custom bike is an elusive dream at the moment for me too. - Yamaguchi maybe? I’d love to try a titanium bike proportioned right for my freaky proportions but ….yeah.
Nice I am more a roadie and have zero velodromes in my area so a track bike makes no sense but a nice fixed gear road bike would be perfect.
The 'guchi is pretty nice, he does excellent work. I really want to take Koichi's course and build a frame with him at some point. I would do it, well worth it. Maybe even try Dave Levy at TiCycles he does great work at pretty reasonable prices.
