Kelly Bedford was a builder I hadn't looked at before you mentioned yesterday. What research did you do on him? Did you go so far as speaking too him?
deleted-
No. None of the above.
Did speak to a guy on the PL though. He’ll build a bike as good as a Kirk, but out of any material. Think that’s his main appeal versus a Kirk.
Also just remembered that his frames are welded by Andy Keech, who was head welder at Serotta. But brazing and lugs are Kelly himself.
Message ltwtsculler91 on PL. He was the guy.

Might be worth reaching out. When they redid my seatpost they offered Eriksen branding. Maybe, just maybe they’d do the same for a frame? Unsure, obviously.
And yeah, all of the above have worked with Ti for at least two decades I think. Bedford is the best value for money out of those IMO. I like his branding too. Genuine master of his craft.
But FF is undoubtedly the smartest. Waitlist was 13 months as of April by the way. That may have changed slightly now.
