Once the capital markets get shored up and I can get some well heeled Japanese guy to pay for a run up front, I'll make some more, but until then, pfft... (that is except for team bikes... must always build the bikes the racers ask for... it's in the blood)
wow! great bikes grant. very, very cool.
jim
in my own defense...
i've got to add one more photo,
cause it looks like all my bikes don't get used...
but that's just 'cause the camera is usually around when
they're clean.

Grant,
You do have a beautiful collection, and their all just my size. It must be tough making a choice some days.
Byron
Wow Zank! That's a lot of pretty bikes! You should post pix of Rebecca's bikes, as they are wicked awesome too.
Thanks to all the guys showing their stuff. I love your craft, skill.
I second the Hans meister, kick azz rides and the dudes and dudettes that create them....seriously drool worthy.:adore:Quote:

Mike,
Quick question for you....
What's the difference between going with straight bladed and raked forks? Aesthetics alone?
Just wonderin'
William
Yes, in my view it's just aesthetics. The #2 bike will be her winter bike with fenders. I think fenders look good with curved blades.
