From: My response would have been something along the lines of: "Does your bike have computer controlled suspension? Then shut your piehole, this baby is from the future!"

I just placed a deposit with Tom Oswald for a custom frame with handcut lugs. He's not as well known as some other builders, and he doesn't build many bikes, but he's a very fine craftsman. It will take a while before my frame is done, but in the meantime I have a nice-shirt. There are some nice examples of his work on his website:

I'm building up my frame as a classic-style bike with a NOS 1993 8-speed Chorus group.
