@hma
thanks for the kind words!
@lae: i'm not saying i can make a mechanically better frame than a framebuilder, but their knowledge can be learnt and turned into routine. what i'm saying is that there are a lot of small details that do count but are disregarded and can only be seen on frames considered porn - those out of reach for ordinary people.
@Gally: thanks for the tip - i have a constantly open tab with the velocipede salon's list. i'll definitely check out Steve's thread.
i cannot tell you what rod i'm using as here in budapest finding well known brands is a bit difficult - i walked in, asked the guy for a silver rod and i got one. :) it worked quite well on the first test..
please find the cromor specs attached below (i bought the round butted seat tube)
