Nice bike. I'm seriously impressed.
Are those rear forks shaped somehow? They look like they are flattened one way at the end and then flattened the other way in the middle, but that could be a trick of the lighting in the photo. If so, how did you manage that?
How did you decide on the frame geometry? Did you copy an existing bike which was Baby-Bear's-porridge, or did you work out your perfect geometry somehow and build this to suit you. Copying an existing frame would be easier, so I'd be interested which approach you took.
I've thought of giving one of the frame-building courses a go, but it'd never be anything like as fine as your bike. And then I would have frame-envy.
Has anybody tried one of those courses? If so, what was your frame like at the end? And do you still ride it?
