Great stuff Lynette.<br />I'd like to share some pics I took during a visit to Japan's most famous framebuilder, Nagasawa-san, this past summer. <br />http://tinyurl.com/45fw6mc<br /><br />Enjoy and if you want a Nagasawa you'll need to go visit him to get properly fitted; he no longer builds frames for overseas customers unless he can meet them. Best bring an interpreter too.TPotterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17987417248551181420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177338640391131665.post-11337989372123970742011-01-09T17:23:04.829-08:002011-01-09T17:23:04.829-08:00I love this.

Saw Craig Calfee at Biketoberfest in Fairfax in October and he remembered not only me and my bike, but also the shop that did the initial measurements in 2000. My Calfee is the 2nd smallest one he's produced to date--somewhere there's a 41cm (mine is a 42cm). I had Campy Record components on it initially, but went to SRAM Force in 2007 when carpal tunnel/bursitis/arthritis from computer work/lab bench work/martial arts injuries/ familial arthritis made it really painful to shift with my thumbs. This has actually gotten much better since I cut way back on wheat and other gluten grains starting in May of 2009 (and my seasonal allergies have also virtually disappeared).Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07918502952358757691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177338640391131665.post-60727264809702762952011-01-04T17:49:05.761-08:002011-01-04T17:49:05.761-08:00Wonderful work Lynette.

You captured the mystique, the spirit of old world craftsmanship, and the unique experience of creating, building, owning and riding a handbuilt bike. Well done!mpetry912https://www.blogger.com/profile/02434530239246909594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177338640391131665.post-9736183997554410242011-01-03T16:38:23.322-08:002011-01-03T16:38:23.322-08:00This is a WONDERFUL video for anyone remotely inte...This is a WONDERFUL video for anyone remotely interested in the world of custom handmade bicycles.<br /><br />Lynette – I love this videomurray9717https://www.blogger.com/profile/13236846453136560850noreply@blogger.com
