    I love this. All bikes should look this effortlessly cool....(although there is a great amount of effort and work / detail gone into this). I want one....do you do them in black ;)

    I really (really) love all the subtle details on this bike. It may be the old graphic designer coming out in me, but the tone on tone, bass relief, touches are extraordinary! It’s beautiful mate. It’s really inspired me for my next build, where I want to go mechanically simpler but more...

    I’d just like to take a moment to thank everybody for their support, advice and words of encouragement during this process.

    Day is not over yet but stopped to cook roast dinner. Have decided to use the cable guides that I was going to grind off, as a means of affixing the headlamp. still not 100 percent sold on it but it works. May need to create a cross bracket at the front to keep it less ‘flexible’
