But there are two of them! Bridges spanning the gap could then possess the braze on for a bottle cage. In this picture the bridges serve as cable stops, but it is a similar idea. I remember seeing them on a double-downtube Colnago, like this: <http://www.trackosaurusrex.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/NagoBondedDouble.jpg> On Friday, August 23, 2013 4:53:08 PM UTC-7, Liesl wrote: > > Hi friends, > > What a tutorial in gears!
