Re:

Interesting to see a 2013 frame for v-only, but a true modern retro rather than retro-mod.
Is that a 1” or 1&1/8” headtube?
Looks great. I have a 2009 Dogs Bolx with disc mount but it also has the less original looking downtube, more angular.
Should you split ... I would like to know the price of the frame..’
