Custom steel lugged frame
custom fillet brazed stem (it is threadless but built to look threaded)
Painted to match honjo fenders
"Vanilla" downtube script is brazed on steel instead of a decal.
"Light Rack" for 2 E6 lights with iternal wiring. This allows me to take the entire light and wire unit off with 3 screw.
Frame is built to take disc brakes as well as long reach brakes.
Front wheel is black Schmitt disc hub rear is Chris King both laced to velocity aerohead black non-machined 32 hole rims
Shifters/brake levers are Campy carbon record to allow for bar bag but the rest of the drive train is Shimano XTR and Dura Ace
I was looking for a super clean look as well as a good wet weather bike and that is why I decided to try disc brakes.
