Teasers



Here are a couple of teaser shots of the new bike. Its been wet and rainy, but late this after noon we got a little sun and got a few pictures in. Most of them aren't good, so I'll retake them - perhaps tomorrow. Meanwhile, here's whats available of the completed bike.

The closer chain stay has a protector on the top - which obscures the quality of the finish. The rear stay gives a better sense of the job that Gordon did.

As always, click on the picture to enlarge.

The second shot shows the top of the seat stays, the rear Cane Creek brake, and the Tacx Tao bottle cages. I've never used the Taos before, but the bottle fit seems a bit loose. I'm considering putting a dot of clear silicone caulk on the inside to better hold the bottles. Anyhow, this shot better shows the surface smoothness and shine that Gordon achieved with the paint.

Probably have more pix tomorrow.
