Nice Pog.

I forgot who makes those straps though. They'd look nice on my Marinoni and I like the wider area by the clip.

Not a fixed gear bike, but just posting it here anyways. Custom frame built for me by forum member napalmandroses. (cross posted in Fixed Gear Style Road Bikes thread as well)

Getting shipped tomorrow:

I'll post more pictures when I get it and when it is built.

Whaaaaaat? Webbed lugs? That is a beautiful frame, Ryan. I'll be watching for the build up details.

Finned, Luke. They are finned.

Sharks > Frogs.

Thanks.

its a beaut.

3Rensho Modeulo lugset -- picked up from that Dutch seller on eBay, I assume? Really nice.

thank you.

I'd have to look through our 83 email conversation in order to find the lugs. I can't remember off hand, but who knows, maybe he will see it here and answer.

Back to website statistics. Thanks for the compliments.

Got bored with stats. I don't know anything about the lugset other than it came from a guy in the Netherlands that apparently used to have a bike shop. I'm sure the builder could answer this question better than me though.

ch0mb0, that bike is amazing. Come to DC for polo-ing.
(I will miss your Oct. tournament due to a CX race that weekend, but I believe papa tink is taking the spot on my team.)

I would never have thought those two colors would go together so well. Awesome frame ryand!

Ah the colours. I knew what I kinda wanted, but couldn't really describe properly or completely provide a proper colour. So I told the builder my idea. Also, the 'finned' lugs he picked out played on my idea, the entire concept of the bike. The builder talked with the painter about what I was looking for, and I don't think I could be happier. The pearl white was the accent I knew I wanted, but the blue-ish grey-ish aquatic colour is the one I couldn't describe. Every step of the process I was thanking him for his patience with my non-decision and inability to do anything other than describe ideas. He (said) he didn't mind, and that it was a lot of fun that way.

I wanted him to be able to use my input and at the same time, express his creativity in the build. I think it worked out perfectly.

mmmm. aero.

quite a collection there!

Touche! Remember how ****ty New Coke was? Yuck! Oh and don't forget Crystal Pepsi :D

oh ryan D, congratulations man, that's a really amazing frame!

I'm stealing it. Not even lying.

What frame is that?

Worlds fastest bike?

no risers? :)

i wish i wasnt an ectomorph. **** look at those legz.

I think they'd be perfect for your 'noni, as they are Marinoni branded Silva straps. Laminated. Cheap. Lots of colors. Do it.

I really like the monocog. I have been trying to work myself up to buying one for a little while. How does it ride?

I know you were queer looking at mens legs and not bikes.

ellipses, eh?
