reNEWed Bike Day teaser

[ANDREW LETTON]

After waiting six months in the frame builder’s queue (to replace a cracked chainstay, move the brake bridge, and add a bunch of braze-ons for bottles, racks, internal light wiring, and a dropper post) and then another six months in the painter’s queue, I finally got word that my 1999 All-Rounder is finally ready for pick-up. WoooHooo! I’m so happy!
(I’ll be picking it up on Tuesday)
cheers,

Fantastic color choice. That is going to be a hell of a good looking bike.

Andrew, don't make us wait an equal length of time to see a pic of the assembled bike!    ; -)

Very nice!

Andrew, 

Was it the non-drive side chain stay that cracked? As I understand it, they used thinner tubing on the non-drive side to keep these bikes light and thicker tubing on the drive side to withstand the extra stress. Killer looking frame btw.

Andrew,

Awesome looking bike, hope the build turns out as nice! BTW, how much for the brake bridge to be relocated? I bought a Crust Malocchio which has a low brake bridge as well. I'm thinking in a year or two I might have it moved up as long as I really like the bike to justify the cost.

Thanks and good luck,

John

Beautiful, Andrew; I'm eager to see the completed build.  In the meantime, what is that color of blue called?

Enjoy the build,

Tom

That color is stunning! Looking forward to seeing your build.
