I often get the impression that the brief clients give to frame builders would be the equivalent of going to a tailor and demanding a formal suit, but unstructured, for a warm climate but made of 12 oz wool. Give me all the cycling buzzwords in one package, short wheelbase, s&s couplers, all day comfort, obscure brakes, fixeh, with gears, lightweight but with mudguards and a kickstand, and i'd like a carbon drive side chain stay but metal on the nds, stainless head tube and gas pipe top tube.
