• I hope not.
    I don't expect a frame builder to have taste.
    But I expect them to mount a rack a bit better. Also how wet will the 500$ light get.

  • I was told a few years ago “frame builders can build Frames but never trust them to build a bike”

    He was proven right when the next custom built bike comes in, CK bb in dry, shocking bar tape, frame was not straight so they dished the wheel over etc!

  • frame was not straight so they dished the wheel

    Sounds like they can't build a frame either.

  • I also wouldn't let my framebuilder friend build a bike for me.

    But rack placement, in my opinion, is part of their job.
