Second take on it and that is some incredible detail .
Next bike I get tho:

I think that might be the most beautiful steel lugged I've ever seen so far/

Hard to beat a Bishop! The lugwork alone....

I like a lot about it- Not crazy about the use of a rim brake bridge on the seat stays.
Also hate the Thomson stuff. It it had Enve or Zipp bits I would like it better.

Chris' workmanship is exquisite.

My feelings too...I also would like to get one, especially with a chromavolato finish

Mine too

That eyesore was a good option a decade ago for a light post with offset....so many better choices now

Oh, just look past the build. As nice as the paint is, even the color doesn't do it for me. The frame though? That's beautiful!

nice ride
