Hi, all, I just wanted to take a moment to tell you about a Boston builder from whom I recently bought a frame. His name is Ian Sutton, and his marque is Icarus. He's just starting out as a full-time builder, but he worked at Seven after training under Yamaguchi, so he has a fair bit of experience. I shopped around for a long time before asking him to build me a frame (my first custom!), and I'm extremely pleased with the results. He gently talked me out of the dumb ideas that I had, and came up with some better ones. His brazing and finishing work are beautiful, and he is very responsive and communicative. He has IDEAS--and, while his frames share a certain aesthetic, no two of them look identical. First frame is mine (build pics this weekend!).
I just wanted to bring a young builder to your attention! Check him out at www.icarusframes.com .
