This frame only needs to have the Seatstay and Chainstay
bridge joints finished. It won't take long but my fingers and
thumbs are trashed from all of the work that they have done
in the last week and a half. I will either have to wait a couple
of days or enlist Jake's help to finish these. Next step for me
is to build the fork. I should be able to kick that out tomorrow.
The Seatstays on this frame turned out interesting. I realized
that the dropouts that I had were meant for a much larger frame.
I came up with the bent stay idea so that I could continue to work
on the bike during my time off of work and wouldn't have to order
new dropouts. I am very happy with the result.
oh, those bent seat stays are super cool. Nice work. Ever wear leather gloves when doing the finishing work? As always, beautiful work Bob.
