I’m pretty sure I saw a green Condor on Facebook a few years ago with these lugs, possible a variation on the Capella designs that Carlton and Raleigh used.
The fancy lugs on the Condor site link were designed by Bill Hurlow. 👌

Cheap as chips Condor Pendio. ❤️ Sadly too small for me.

I would paint it black personally but this is quiet cool.

Excuse my mountain bike geometry ignorances but what height rider would this be suitable for please?

Love this BITD insight & common sense reply.

Jim Goldberg’s Raised By Wolves and his collages might be considered chaotic and maybe some of William Klein painted contacts series?

Very slick! You should message Dave Yates, he has been very active on this thread....

Saul Leiter vibes. Excellent couple of images imo. If not already you should think about how these images would work in a book, what sequence / narrative etc✌️

Looks lovely! If you want to sell the seatpost I would be very interested to buy it for my old condor. 👍

Thanks!

Thanks for the info! @DaveYates @midlife

Interesting would the Condor frames you built be engraved or cast?

As a taller rider i've always had a soft spot for the what I believe is called the Freuler geometry where the top tube is dropped a bit on big frames.
Ive noticed a few of your builds use this and if not to inconvenient I would be very interested to please hear your thoughts on this geometry, is it something you recommended for taller riders or customer preference etc and why? @DaveYates
Thanks.

Very cool!

Yeah totally agree the cost, time, effort required to work in large format is very intensive!

Defo agree about using large format for commercial studio based work but I can still understand the appeal of using it out in the field.
I think it was Alec Soth who talked about how his portrait sitters would relax a bit while he set up his 10x8 camera, used to break the ice a bit.
Also maybe quiet beneficial about how long it can take to capture whatever it is your after and how this makes you consider if it’s even worth capturing.

I’ve never used 10x8 but I’m guessing it’s to do with weight as all the cameras mentioned would be (from
memory) metal and extremely heavy in 10x8 vs a comparatively light wooden Deardorff?

JM would be lugging it around Cape Cod a lot…

Pretty amazing and very jealous you got to experience that. Slight correction he used (for some series) a Deardorff 10x8 not dearlove.

just need to have a quick measure but interested in the Thomson Elite X2 120/31.8, 10deg please

If for any reason @Jingle_Jangle you don’t want the wheels or spare wheel I would be happy to make another forum donation for them, I’m after a pair of decent 27” wheels.

Is that tubeless tape I can see / any idea if they are tubeless compatible?

Thanks

Thanks @Velocio and thanks @daveyates for such a detailed reply, has made my day tbh.

Interesting regarding the down tube, I always presumed similar for the seat tube as my frame takes 27.0 seat post.

Love the decal as well!

Fore!

Bit of a moat point but no turrets?

Hi @DaveYates you confirmed my 90’s Condor was one of yours but when you have time I would be interested to know a bit more about the use of 531 designer select please. Have read a few bits online but any reason to use this over other my popular 531 variations or just down to the original customers preference?
My frame is quiet large 62cm and have seen similar sized frames in DS was wondering if frame size influenced the use of DS?

Thanks!
