out of my price range too, but it is very pretty.

I'd rather have a bicycle celebrating my relationship, not someone else's.
Yeah... that would be the tandem that's on order. We have pictures, but the builder has asked that we not make them public. It's gonna be really cool!

PS I think the wheels and handlebars are overkill.

The butterflies on the wheels are going to get really dizzy.
Oil is good, grease is better.

I like the frame but not the handlebars or wheels with it - overkill. And didja see how low the handlebars are vis-a-vis the saddle? Ouch!!

I kinda like the frame itself too. Imagine it with a black handlebar and plain wheels, maybe a black fork, too. I'm not much for girly-girl stuff either, but I do like the green foliage and butterflies--they're so beautifully painted--it's just way too much with them on the bars and wheels and the fork.
Doesn't matter though--I'm a few Euros short of the asking price.
