always going to 'float my boat'..........thats obvious i suppose
nice pics, but i would agree with previous comments.
1. lose the V's, shame to see that sweet wishbone cable stop not utlised.
2. not sure on the forks, see where your going with the blue theme, but imho they look to overpowering for the subtle detailing on the frame. search for rigids, would look stella.
3. grips.......tape......umm not sure.
sweet bike though

feel free to tell me...... 'to-get-a-life', but i'm not happy with the rubber boots on the cabling ends. I agree that they work well, but are they necessary on your beut. look to new for the frame era.

Some of the nicest welds I've seen on an Early Fat Ti! Whats with the head tube ring of welds, not seen that before?

mine had those.

Looking at the difference in the wielding it makes you wonder if someone was knocking out Fat Frames after work!

I saw the Ti-Fat soon after it was launched at Malvern and remember the wielding looked stunning.

there is just a big difference between the early once,..and the later once.
Titanium welding was new to the guys so along the way the welding got better
