Two of mine. These are going to be my primary bikes for this year. Both are everything I have ever really wanted and I am very fortunate to have them.

Coincidentally, I purchased this bike here on the Paceline from Hilltopperny. Super build, I only added a saddle and pedals. One of these pics is from a shakedown ride near my house. The other is from a proper forest service road ride last weekend. 35 miles/3900’. The bike was stellar.
Thx again to Adam.

Yes, I was also struck by that Heretic. But the website provides little information about whether it's actually a going business concern or only a hobby.

Purchased from a thrift shop in LA two weeks ago, Guylimey facilitated, put it together yesterday, still need to cut the fork stem, change the handlebar stem to match the top tube and a few other small changes.

That's beautiful, I have never seen anything like that in a thrift shop in my parts.
