show me interesting frame details!

Some really cool stuff on here. Personally though I like the subtle stuff - like the way the top tube on my Saracen ovalises (is that even a word?) towards the seat tube and has a rounded end cap with an embossed 'S'. Similarly, like the way the orientation of the down tube on my Zaskar switches through 90 from the head tube to the BB - also like the flat end cap on the end of the top tube with 'GT' embossed. Will take some pics later, if you like but those are fairly common bikes so sure you know what I'm talking about anyway. :)

this is my new frame (just at the painters as we speak):

Internal cable routing (for gears on the underside of the top tube)

Post mount on the forks

Single wrapped seatstay tube.

Curved brake brace

No bottle cage bosses or rack mounts.

Can't imagine why no-one else has commented on this - it's beautiful! I'm assuming designed for fixed use (or internal gears - hence no rear brake mounts? Deserves its own thread, does one exist?
 
Whoa, those are some sick CNC drops on the Seven, very cool.

Here's my '91 (ish) Santana Moda, tubing is Columbus Nivacrom MAX-the chainstays are massive!:
