Pretty sure I've never seen such a massive steel down tube. Wowza!

it is beautiful, I saw that on some coverage of philly and really admired it. The darimo stem looks nice on there.

Absolute perfection! As a side note, I never seem to see bigger sized Bishops - in the 58+ cm range. Not that anyone would be selling them - just an observation that the shorter crowd on Paceline I are Buying these bikes.

mine is some Mazda color from 2003 or something like that. It makes it very easy to order touch-up paint.

Love that build/color. Reminds me of my old Parlee AltumR which I loved and had a very similar color scheme.

Beautiful bike! I actually just bought it from the classifieds here, and am wondering if you have any specs on the bike outside of the geometry.

Derailleur hanger model?
What carbon fork did Chris use?
What brand is that seatpost?
Did the 700x45 Strada Bianca tires you had on in another post fit when aired up?

Thanks in advance

John, I'd recommend reaching out direct to Chris Bishop, he'll have the specs you're looking for. Fork looks like a Columbus (which is the tubing he and Carl use for Item4), and the seat post appears to be a PMP.
