So, which one do you want?

White or bare steel Angus 48cm... non-standard color is cool as long as it's not neon.

I don't think anybody has contacted him yet, but it would be a good idea to see if there is enough interest first.

no defintely, but it seems as though some people are only interested if it's a non-standard color, so if we get 50 people, and then find out that we can only get black frames, we could lose 10 to 15 people (myself included).

I vote for Army green, battleship grey, slate blue. Rusty orange, basically any color that is a bit unusual, a bit subdued, and NOT too bright. Maybe I should move to Seattle.
whatever color it is I think it needs four asterisks somewhere on it.
Something better than this, but that's the basic idea

why not get volume to make their bikes & give us a deal on either a frame or a complete rig? it will give them a reason to make them & we would definately be a great launching pad/ riding billboards for them. just an idea.

have a 100 frame buy in, with each purchase you're automatically entered into a raffle. The winner gets a completely built bike, the other 99 practice skids on a puddle of tears.

I like those sorts of colors, and that would probably make the difference in me getting one or not. I'd also only get the Angus.

can we do an angus frame with a mark v fork? because i like the fact that the angus has higher quality tubing, but i want a threadless fork. if not i'll just go with a threadless adaptor.
also, are the mark v and angus equal in tightness?

Battleship grey angus sounds cool. Though I would prefer something with steeper geometry.
