That's really cool, especially the purple on the inside of the fork blades :) .

Two-tone fork blades on wide forks looks great. You got some serious bits on that.

Coming from an NJS Bridgestone owner, I'll take that. I'm hoping the position revision cures the speed twitch (RAW wasnt the first time it's done it). The seat is further forward, and it's definitely lower and closer to the hub line in the drops.

Get some of your left over paint and write something illegible on your fence - that will give this photo a bit more hipster street cred!

Nice one, Jase. Subtle stealth... if that isn't a tautology :oops:

A matter of personal taste I realise; but those funny Cannondale rear dropouts always remind me of a limb that's been broken and not properly splinted and then healed all out of shape.

I saw one of these frames at the Sunshine Coast alleycat yesterday, looked super cool in the flesh, especially with deep carbon rims.

The tiny bike shop that served as the start/finish had some leader frames hanging up, looking at their website I wouldn't mind one of these...

Yeezus! With clearances like that, surely someone would think up some way of having the rear tyre self-clean the BB spindle & bearings.
