It has been almost 9 months since I last posted the 13th in a Series, so I thought I would add another to the list. This is a Steel Frame I made for the NAHBS Show in 2007. It Won the "Best in Show" award that year.
It was made in January 2007 of tubing from different Manufacturers - Columbus, Reynolds, and Taiwan. It has lugs I made out of ChromeMoly 4130 Tubing with the Wave Shaped Design that I have been doing for nearly 40 years, and a Pacenti Fork Crown.
The parts are from Shimano, a Bruce Gordon Titanium Pump, a Titanium Seatpost I made to fit the Old Campagnolo 2 Bolt parts. The racks are also Bruce Gordon tubular Titanium. It has 1 of 3 Sets of Bruce Gordon Titanium Cantilevers (I own 2 sets - the 3rd belongs to a guy in San Francisco), Bruce Gordon Carbon Fenders & a Brian Baylis Paint Job (he passed away earlier this year - I miss him a lot).
The Geometry on the frame is: 72.5 degree Head Tube, 73 degree Seat Tube, 4.8cm Fork Rake, 61cm Seat Tube, and a 58.5cm Top Tube, 43.5cm Chainstays and 7.5 cm Drop.
It is on display with the rest of my Collection of Bikes at my shop - You are welcome to visit the shop and see my collection, but, please call ahead because I'm not always here.
Wow! ... and MY size too.
ReplyDeleteLooking at the geometry numbers I guess that this is an insanely nice handling bike. The fact that it looks incredible is just over-the-top impeccability. Is that a word ?
