My New Lynskey Build
It simply doesn’t get any better than this…
I want to personally thank the whole Lynskey Team, my local bike dealer Kevin Cronk, and Jeff Stewart from CycleCo for helping designing, creating and painting this titanium bike frame. Lynskey truly lives up to one of my favorite mottos; “In a world of compromise…some don’t”.
Sincerely,
John L. Berenyi

Wow, I love the subtle red flame on the fork and logo and how you mimmiced the old italian chrome chainstays with the bare Ti.
Definitely one of my favorite paintjobs on a bike.
Congradulations!

Pretty bike. It would be absolutely smoking in a 50-55... Bikes are like models. The plus-size ones are never quite as sexy...

Love it. Congrats. The only thing you'll like better than the finish is the ride.

It's a very hot paint job if you're into quality flames, none of the 'slow motion flames' that you see on the Trek Project 1's and every other motorcycle and muscle car on the road. Leaving just a little Ti showing proves the point that it is a Ti frame for those who don't want a brushed or polished bare frame. The prices are a little steep for this college student, but I am certainly not going to bash someone else's new ride that I'm sure they put a lot of thought, time, and not to mention money into.

That's hot.....
I especially like the chain stays. Kind of an homage to the chromed steel stays that were so cool no too long ago.
