I can see it...She'd wear a pair of french fenders, alittle too small with her Fat Franks almost bursting out.

I saw this one and it concerns me a bit. I do not buy the inability to take good close up images, The rising top tube is not to me an optical error from the camera. I think the bike has had a header. I double checked and while the wheel might be aft in a horizontal drop, that still would not drop the rear end that much as seen in the images.
