they are blue

So, does Glacier Blue Metallic refer to the frame all the way to the left, or the row of erection inducing "blue" frames?





I think I keep posting in here cause really, I just want one of these really bad...

My buddy found a 50 in "Glacier Blue Metallic". He also has a forrest green one in 54.

52's are damn near impossible to find.

At the risk of offending the majority, I think I like the light blue/silver more than the bright blue.

I've considered trying to match the paint and getting some replica decals made, but I'd rather not make a Track imitation out of a conversion.

I don't know why I love these frames so much....I think because of the smooth "joints" and that killer blue...

Also:
-handmade in US
-fillet-brazed
-tight geo
-just ******** awesome

respect your elders young tyke, or you will respect the switch.

old post i know, but this isn't true at all.

it's nearly impossibly to recreate a special mix. it can be close though.

Not fillet brazed,All C-Dale did was sand the welds smooth so there were not stress risers.It is aluminum after all,but this is when I sold them back when they were still only CAD3.

What does CAAD stand for anyways? CAAD 3,4,5...is that just the generation number?

psh sanded welds and slack geo. not hipster enough for me.



seriously though, these things are ridiculously overpriced. these and njs frames make no ****ing sense

Sure they do, if you can afford them.

what about hipster sensibilities and taste DOES make sense?

still a beautiful bike, would buy one if it came at the right price (and size).

brazed steel offers those hipster friendly smooth joints while keeping you on the steel is reel bandwagon.

it's a good place to be, I feel like king hipster every day i ride my bike.

This thread has been resurrected!

What do smooth welds have to do with hipsters?
