To be even close to Bruce's geo would present some kid in candy store opportunities. I contemplated a couple that I've lusted after for years, just too far off in fit. Nice score biketrike.

His bikes are a good fit for me, but it seems like too much work to figure out what is available.

That bike belongs in a museum of modern art for permanent collection.

Anyone know where that rust-colored frame was painted. Were most of his frames painted by Ed Litton? Really love the pink/teal/rust colors, and was considering having it repainted.

Thanks!
