The ss is for ever evolving

the dual ( all mountain)

another dual (XC)

another ss (Reynolds tubing)

road bike

working on designs for a fatty

and a bamboo build beginning to realize.

 

That's all standing at the moment as I have a few paint jobs that is getting preference at the moment.

Many layers. If I remember correctly in some areas up to 16 layers. Im no light weight nor am I a weight weenie so I rather layer a bit more and ha e something strong than a piece of spaghetti wallowing under me. ????

Is this just a hobbie of yours or do you build for others and sell?

Would you consider carbon repairs?

The building is just a hobby at this stage BUT I do do carbon repairs. Why? Want to offer me a job? ????
