This frameset will be making its way over to Japan very soon! Things to note about this frameset are the subtle “dark white” main color with white seat tube and head tube, polished stainless lugs/fork crown, and a custom stainless cutout of his son’s name on the top tube. What a tribute! It’s made from Columbus Spirit for lugs tubing, Richard Sachs lugs, Henry James bottom bracket shell, and Henry James front and rear stainless dropouts. Another way it’s unique is in the way it’s going to be a 10 speed in the literal sense. No front derailleur braze-on and a shifter boss on the drive-side only. Classy!

And we had our annual open house this past weekend with summer-like weather! Lots of people showed up and checked out the shop even though we gave them next to no notice. Sorry. We’ll try to be more on the ball next year.
