I think the forum would be more interested in the bike teased on Instagram? Is that a crust-esque lugged frame? What’s the fork going on it?

Can you share the picture that you're talking about?

Lugged, tapered ht, flat mount gravel bike by the looks of things. And sparkles

Very promising so far! Sparkles for the win.

Interesting! I'm curious about the fork now

Guessing a less exciting carbon gravel fork. Else there wouldn't have been much need for the taper.

That would look very strange with the chrome lugs though... Maybe it will get matching sparkle paint

We were outside frame saving and the sun was shining.

"Crust-esqe" are Crust not just World Tours with disc tabs?

The frame needs cleaning up and head badge fitting then we'll get some photos.

Hoping to have this built and rolling for the Magic Rock Gravel Escape on Sunday.

If the World Tours had clearance for more than 35c tyres; different dropouts; used lighter tubing and had different geometry and still came in versions with rim brake or canti studs then …yes?

My life needs moar sparkles like that in it.

Beat me to it. I was about to post the same. Looks good with the matching sparkles

Thanks for sharing! Im glad the fork has matching paint:) looks awesome so far!

Did you get the tapered head lugs from Peter or did you bring them in yourselves?

I dont think this is Phildas' bike

I think he's just replying to the photos ☺️

Wow this looks fabulous! One day in the distant future I'll order one.

Sorry yeah I meant to reply to one of @BobJackson posts, think I’ve replied to that one where Phildas posted the photos by mistake.

I think Alex Meade had them made and sells them.

Looks right

He's american though right?

I was asking whether Peter has brought these in and has stock or did BJ go to Alex Meade themselves.

Chromed back end or polished stainless back end feels like the million dollar question…

Very nice!
