It's the sign of a builder who is still in business.

I like yours Tester

they're ugly.

I'm guessing those are customer bikes and he's just doing what they ask for.

Is that really the sign of a good frame builder?

Richard Sachs.

Richard Sachs is elevated into a God like figure as he has the most provenance / cred out of any builder. So I doubt he ever has to make anything at all. He could make a living teaching frame building, or even just critiquing.

Richard Sachs ... has the most cred out of any builder

Debatable even by the man himself, I'm sure ..

And the price is set at $10000. Yeah, that will happen never.

That surely is suppose to have bullhorns?

That's supposed to have the same bullhorn that are on the Textimas.

Why take a studio shot of it with a flat rear tyre too?

"Vintage"

Needs these

Im not saying he is the best, just that he is clearly has the most provenance/hipster street cred hyping him up. Amongst this little subculture of bikes and frame building, he is probably the biggest 'celebrity' there is.

Needs these

He's literally gone out of his way to make this look like dogshit..

Aero bike, flashy wheels, sit up n beg

Camo spacers

Also clearly has no idea how to photograph a bike.

The rear light and nodder iphone mount that match the frame make it. The photo makes no sense. Why get a "professional" photo of you bike done with lights and a saddle bag. Also the stand thing, so many better option. People amaze me.
