Those are beautiful, did you have a frame in mind for them?

Nope i just saw the pretty crown lug and though i should make some. i might see if i can make some 650b modern retro ones for my every day ride. I am not very commercially savvie, some time i just build for the joy of it. it would be nice to make a full retro build to a 650b or 29 modern build. even down to making 10/11 speed thumb shifters.

Re:

They look great, i'm deeply envious of your workshop, tooling and skills. Wishful thinking at this penniless time of year, but would it be much of a job to build them with u brake bosses?

Re:

Happy to a u-brake one if you want at a later date. or one where the lower part is filleted in to make it smooth. all good fun. you could build one yourself with MAPP gas and silver solder:

Re:

I look forward to seeing the Pace Forks (531 mk.1's are my fav. over the later Columbus version).
While you're at - anybody making a faithful replica of the legendary Kona Project 2 titanium fork in the correct material would have plenty of customers too. Nice to see the biplanes though - ideal for some of my earlier bikes, and Specialized even made their own replica of these again in 2007 for the 25th anniversary Stumpjumper
