Love that colour. What a perfect choice. Please post the RAL! How does it perform? You mentioned a potentially compliant and planing frame. Does this frame have more tire clearance than your RBW frames? Will you be tempted by wider rubber at some point? A very well executed design and build ind

Hi Patrick, Very nice. Can you post a closer-up picture of your headlight support? I hesitate to mount front or rear lights directly to fenders because of the potential stress of the light's weight on the fender, but it look like you've conquered that problem. Thanks. Dave Boston/Indy > >
