Fully agree... I think we were both considering the black and white one recently. I've kept an eye open after seeing that oneYeah, thanks @pholTmonx ... my buddy has the same frame, but his has been modded a bit-- the seat-tube is curved and the rear-end is like raked out different. It rides really nice, but I just like that the double top-tubes cantilever to the seatstays, and hit that loop in a "wishbone" configuration. Just looks cool...
Rad frame for sure. Glad you're scoring it 808. I hadn't seen one of these frames till that black and white one. I'll be sure to share pics when I'm done building itFully agree... I think we were both considering the black and white one recently. I've kept an eye open after seeing that one
Nice! Rad frames for sure. I look forward to seeing what you guys come up with! I'm still having headset issues. I unearthed a post via google from 2011 where @Bicycle808 describes a similar issue.. 32.7 cups fall right in, sloppy even. The wald 4080 seems a solution, but not the best... Other then that, all parts are standing by. (Mines, as most of my builds, low/no budget/ on hand.) Think it'll come out fun tho.@Bicycle808 and @Dizzle Problems looks like we will be having an informal twin top tube build off like it or not... I'm joining the cool kid crew

Thanks 808. I have cups, just not the rest. Everything I had on deck bearing and race wise didn't want to line up nicely. Plus I wanted an excuse to use the tioga bear trap I have, ha. The fork I got for this build is a worksman though. Until I read your old post, I didn't even consider the crown race could be 27. I've been meaning to buy calipers. Looks like today's my day.I'll pop my cups out and put the calipers on'm. I'll also see if Worksman cups fit; if they do, i'll probably have some I can send ya...
I got cup and caged bearings, but nothing else in mine. I'm gonna mock it up with stuff i got on hand. Worst case, i'll run loose ballz....Thanks 808. I have cups, just not the rest.

Yea, sorry for the thread take over @rrtbike . I actually figured the headset out this afternoon. Had to cannibalize 4 headsets to get there. My headtube measured 33.2...
