The Finished Bike
It's been a couple weeks since I got this bike fully assembled. In that time I've put a good 35 hours on it totaling more than 275 miles. It is - flawless. There are still a few tweaks and adjustments to be made. I think I will replace the fork very soon, but other than that, she's ready to take on some serious trail.
Here she is in full singlespeed mode. This is how I prefer to ride anyway.
The media blasted logos are really slick. It adds a beautiful texture to the titanium that I've never seen before.
The headbadge is handmade, and since Arizona is the copper state, is good old genuine copper. Note the internal hydraulic lines. This is more than just a flashy aesthetic feature. This will permit the use of frame bags without complicating cables and hydro lines.
The custom post is just as detailed and elegant as the rest of the bike, right down to the Form logo. I also really love the Lorica leather SLR saddle. Saddles should be Italian, anyway.
