Thanks! She is. Really came together nicely in the end.

He didn't get it off of fleabay. In fact I think he got it off of here or Pink Bike. Here's your bike before the paint....




It's great to see the before. Most of my projects have been big restorations. I think this one looked better than my 1993 expresso did at the start :)

One more Brodie to finish off. It was a lot less work than the middle two.

Re:

It looks camouflaged in front of that wall art, but that suits it since it is the work of art!
 
Well if that's the best you can do...

Just kidding of course, effing incredible!!!

I really like the frame protectors on the cable housing, what did you use, I've not seen that before?
 
Re:

Thanks guys. Quite happy with this.

The frame protectors are from Jagwire shamus. They work very well look pretty good on most bikes.

I love the sound of this thing. The ringle rear hub sounds so awesome.

Well that is just stunning, hats off to your attention to detail, so perfect it almost doesn't look real!

Thanks! Definitely my best build in terms of quality of parts and what not.

Toxic Labs did a really nice job of painting the frame. That's most of it. I had a ton of beautiful parts come my way from friends on here and elsewhere.

I think balancing the black and silver was key to. I lost the pics of it with more zebra look and it wasn't as nice.

I like the little things on it. Like those Paul moon units I re-anno'd black and silver, and how the front derailleur works.
