That looks nice! Loking forward to full pics.
The brothers seem to have changed the placing of the penny; nowadays it's usually on the end of the seat stays, not the bridge.

That got my attention too!

Think it's a cyclocross frame. Maybe that explains something. Have to see what serialnumber it has and what year it is. Think i will have to contact Sycip for more information.
The frame still has the Specialized decals on it and I don't want to take them off just yet... Need more info before I do that... :|

Looks nice.
Is the seat-tube bulged near the top?

Noticed it on the picture too....

Not sure, it's at home now. Will have a look tonight...

Very nice! Matching stem. Quite a nice score.

Serialnumber is SC18!!

Should be from 1992!

You're killing me. Full bike pics, please!

Re: Couldn't resist............. SYCIP!

Here's a full pic of the bike.

Will put a build thread soon!

Question: should I put this CX bike in the MTB- or Road-section?

Leave it here. Those roadies are a bit sniffy about the New World.
It's a very elegant frame but without fancy lug work they wouldn't get it!
