lugs are closer to Nervex than Newvex. Quite a bit of work to cut those out. possibly from the Pacenti lugs?

That Brooks took it to another level of comfort on a 26 mile ride with it the other day.

I asked my friend and colleague Rich Gang yesterday about Wayne Evans. Rich lives in Denver and has his shop in Golden. Rich knows Wayne well and says he is the kind of guy to stay out of the limelight. He has been making frames for a very long time but doesn't make them very often. Rich said he helped Wayne with fixture design when he started out. One other interesting thing he said is that Wayne started making Mountain bikes long before the guys in Marin county CA. He remembers Wayne coming by with motorcycle type of brake levers. Gangl would be your source for more information about Wayne and how to get ahold of him.

That looks all business, beautiful job. I wish I could ride a Swallow, they just look fast and cool.

I've been into the rainbow fade paint jobs these days. Marin Limited Editions, Lemons, and now this. Very cool.
