Thanks, that is the most commented on thing
- painted them at work with the frame - which was the actual one (satin black demo) that STW tested in the mag.The DB didn't work out unfortunately, real shame but that's another story altogether!
Cheers

Another fillet brazed Roberts, this time one of those in-vogue rigid 29ers, but perhaps not exactly the kind of hardtail you were thinking of?

here is mine,, i designed and sent the drawings off to xacd in china , you sign off their drawing and send the cash off, and within two months it arrived simple,,Posted 8 months ago # -
Seeing as Flamejob hasn't spotted this, I'll do him the honours
I believe this frame was designed by flamejob and custom built in Taiwan for him. Looks really nice I think, Retro with modern bits.Posted 8 months ago # -

the guy from xacd Porter can be pushy and a bit rude, but that is often how they are over there,,
they draw up your ideas and ask you to sign off the drawing, dont let them pressure you , get it right, i am very fussy about little bits like cable stops etc,,
i nust have gone through about 5 drawing versions before i was totaly happy,, they guy (or gal) who does the drawing is on the ball and understands more than Porter often i would draw up a change and porter would not understand and require some clarification but before i had a chance to reply a new correct drawing would arrive
my bike was more expensive than most from there as my dropout design was expensive to produce and there is an upcharge for all those bent tubes but thats what i wantedPosted 8 months ago # -
Bendy top tube riders - how are you finding standover and general clearance when riding?
