One incoming

in response to weisan's thread "Two incoming" https://forums.thepaceline.net/showthread.php?t=222052

I present to you one incoming. A different approach than weisan in the quest of N+1. Certainly not the most economical way of doing it but I will be getting a beautiful bike built and spec'ed by an amazingly talented builder. Support your builders....

I recognize that blue door!

Should be awesome--I have huge respect for your builder's Renaissance Man skill set.

I don't know that blue door. But it sure looks like a lovely place to work

That looks like my Merlin Agilis designed by Tom Kellogg. Every bike was built by a "builder" once.

What is 88 divided by 4?

Multiplied that by a magic number that's on my thread.

I'd like to have one incoming from the same place. I find myself reading this post over and over again ...

Very nice but the builder really should add a rear triangle.

I picked up a Huntsman this past winter at the shop. I absolutely love it.

Kris is first class in every way.

Enjoy the entire process.

I requested a very compliant rear triangle.

You are not going to believe this but I have less money to blow and less time to ride as a stay at home Dad. However, I would not trade it for the world.
