That’s a beautiful bike. I’m intrigued by this fork. Are close-ups in the works?
Yep, Allotec A120 with a few mods - I'll try to shoot some photos soon.
Hey Mr. Hampco, what fenders you gots on that thang? Inquiring minds in the cold mid 60s weather Montana is having this December so far, need to know.
7-11 livery with Sheldon nuts…you rock Steve.

I should not be planning my next bike already but I already know it’ll be built around those TRP brakes and S&S couplers. Hampco is on the very short list.
True enough. I sold my coupled bike when our twins were born, because: twins.
But with my in-laws across the pond, I think if I order another custom frame I’d consider couplers just for optionality. If we only ever visited them at their home I’d buy a cheap aluminum bike and keep it there but we tend to meet up elsewhere for vacations. Rental cars that fit three kids and multiple car seats in Europe are screamingly expensive as it is.
The other option is bikeflights or renting.
This bike may force me to move forward my N+1 timeline

Tl;dr version: prices going up slightly, Maglia ROSA going away, MAX tubing "reassigned" to other models, more steel forks.

So many of these builds look roughly your size ...
