Bikes: Ron Cooper touring, 1959 Jack Taylor 650b ladyback touring tandem, Vitus 979, Joe Bell painted Claud Butler Dalesman, Colin Laing curved tube tandem, heavily-Dilberted 1982 Trek 6xx, René Herse tandem
Nice Vitus 
Building out a Vitus is like eating a Reeses peanut butter cup. There's no wrong way. These bikes ride like a dream and they sure are beautiful!
Mine's got a bunch of vintage American-made CNC machined weight weenie stuff on it. Plus Suntour mechs and Simplex levers.
