Forked! AKA; painting lugs is hard!

I have been tearing down and rebuilding my Serotta travel bike, which had an older, pretty beat up Winwood carbon fork on it.

Cruising ebay, I happened to find a steel fork made by Paul Sadoff of RL. Scooped it up, stripped it, and painted it, including contrasting lug work. Man, it takes patience and a steady hand to paint lugs.

Anyway, this frame is totally beat up from the coupler install, DIY touch ups and lots of TSA gorillas from thousand of miles of travel, but it looks good from 15'

Looking forward to some Spring miles!
