Jack Taylor Bambino...

This is pretty sweet. Handbuilt, fillet-brazed child's mixte with hammered fenders, a custom rack and a pint-sized Silca pump. Nice leather saddle (Ideale?) too! Here's the link to the eBay auction:

My brother had a 'lil Jack Taylor (non-mixte_ for sale at the Westminster swap meet in February. Pretty neat - and you're right about the nice details on that ebay example. I'm "Jacked" today because I've just been given a '77 JT complete bike to go with the one I already own. It will be my "mechanic skills practice" bike.

I have a chance to get a JT tandem. It doesn't fit me, but I'm tempted nonetheless. I passed on a JT tourist in my size a few years ago and I've been kicking myself ever since.
