No Darks! No Flavors! I will also accept two cases of the High Life.

None of this can be brazed. It will be a high-end steel. The quality form Jeff Lyon is freaking amazing, he is probably the Best Fillit Brazer in the country, with the possible exception of Tom Ritchey and our own Troy Colman. Everyone who knows their shit kicks down the respect to Jeff. If you want to personally inspect the Frames, there should be a few at the BIKESMITH on 45th in Wallingford, same block as the Erotic Bakery. It's pretty "unkept" in there, so don't where shoes that you're found of.

Awesome. One thing I forgot to mention, the frames come with a Kinesis carbon fork, but he also will paint up a nice steel ritchey fork to match your frame. It's a sweet one, same thing that comes on Tom's expensive road frame which is also FILLIT-BRAZED. or you don't have to buy a fork at all. > > > > * Yes, custum top tube lengths are available, his frames tend to run a little short in the Top tube anyways. > > > > * Custum paint jobs are definintly cool.
