DimSumClan Custom Steel S&S Coupled Road

Back in late 2018 I fulfilled another decade dream of mine and learned how to craft a steel framed bike. Working under the guidance of the @thebicycleacademy I somehow arrived at this beauty. It’s a custom brazed S&S coupled steel frame with a mix of #Columbus and #Dedacciai tubing. I like think of it as a ‘modern classic’ human powered machine for the journey forward. Having completed the build last year, I finally managed to get it by the talented @dark.coldwater (who even scouted just the right place for the shoot). Never too late to get it posted. Couldn't decide on a paint job so thought just wanted to keep it honest and raw until it gets too rusty. #nevernotcrafting #nevernotmaking #ifyoucantbuyitmakeit #steelbikesteelbridge #steelisreal #thebicycleacademy #ratbike #constantlycurious #dimsumclan
