i'll have to agree with this. i'm one a a few that don't go nuts over NJS or NJS inspired builds. i can appreciate a nice frame and a nice bike, but to me they're nothing to write home about.

This thread makes me want:
a) A Yamaguchi frameset
b) A Brooks Swallow
c) a classy box-rim wheelset with tan or white sidewall tires.

Original double tube circa 1951... originally a delivery / utility bike but now a retro path / road racer.

I'd call it practical and very comfortable looking... and despite the massive amount of rubber under those bikes the FF rolls out pretty fast... and when you can go through stuff you'd otherwise be dodging that saves time and energy.

anyone have any advise on acquiring a cheap frame that will take these tires?
