I'm going to build (another!) frame! I want it to be really understated, and average to look at, but put real attention into the details. Going to keep everything really simple though, especially the lugs, which I plan on making myself this time (tig welding them, then smoothing over the welds with a fillet braze).
Please excuse the photos of shit sketches, they were just to get an idea of what the angles will look like with the geo I'm planing on using. I will get on solidworks later and make a proper model.
I have some ideas for some really nice details, like the dropouts, the rear bridge (secret for now), and making some twinplate, straight blade forks with a cutaway in the lower plate for tyre clearance.
Want to keep the frame and forks raw and clearcoated when I'm done too, and build it up with some nice, shiny black bits!
