That is so cool! We only got a couple of pics when our tandem was ready to go to the welding station. That is already one stunning bike.

The frame was finished on Thursday, but I've been too busy to post up the final pics until now. The lug work is gorgeous. I've been really impressed with the whole process, from the ease of communication to the professionalism and expertise, the quality of the work; sending the pics has just been an exciting perk. The bike is now off to Joe Bell and it's back to waiting.

Good golly; I love it! I bet it's going to look gorgeous in sunlight! I'm so excited for you. Give us a full ride report when you finally have a chance to take her out for a spin.

A fantastic build, congratulations! I can't help but drool over the spec sheet

[Owlie]

That is a beautiful bike. And awesome specs. Congratulations!

Thanks, ladies. It's my dream bike, and I saved up my money, pretty much cutting out anything other than necessities, for over a year. I'm out to do a short ride now. Too bad I have daily responsibilities or I'd see how comfy the ride is when going longer. That will have to wait for the weekend.

Such a satisfying process and great final bike to ride into your days!!! ENJOY

I know the feeling! I hope it's everything you hoped for while saving up - and more!

I've managed three shortish rides so far, but will have plenty of time this weekend to really ride. Took the bike back to my lbs today for final touches and tweaks. I'm happy to say that right now I wouldn't change a thing.

Wow. Just wow to all of it. So happy for you!
