file the brazing nicely and spray her up!

Brucy, that's mental, any closeups of the headtube welds?
How much does it weigh?

Everyone knows it's all about bottles on the forks! ;)

so what was the steering like when you suddenly remove 750g from one side?

and how was your back when you had to reach forwards and down, in the middle of the night, in the dark, alone and wretched?

Looks great, really interested in seeing it built up. What style forks are you going to use?

I think wound-up´s would look the biz... but that depends on the purpose of this frame..

whatev

potato.. tomato..

oh, wait

I´m about to (?)swap(?) my Lo-pro for this.
But i´m intrigued, normally CONCORDE frames were built by CIOCC, according to
the (few) information I could get hold of, and this cut-out on the lugs matches the CIOCC
usual lugs. But my mate´s CONCORDE has lugs just like DE ROSA´s ones!?
Anyone has any info about what´s the real deal behind Dutch Concorde?
the bb has this SN number 7462. anyone!?

Well i had to struggle really hard to come up with a way around that complex problem of removing 750g from one side...it took a long time, but eventually i realised "hey, why don't i drink from each bottle equally"....damn i'm smart sometimes!

As for reaching down with my crippled back, alone, in the dark, naked (you did say that right?)...oh, and wretched...i just leaned the extra 3" further forward than where the gear levers sit on one of those oh so fashionable roadie gearie bikes, and PRESTO!

time to invest in those long flexible drinking straws!

Picked up new frame today (same as the old I had but with the right height)
Wheels will stay but most of the stuff comes from an old bike.
Deda dropbars will replace the bullhorns.
Stearingtube will be shortend.
Other saddle.
Carbon seatpost.
Maybe a carbon frontwheel.
