I keep looking at this pic because the bike is so stunning. Then I notice the dude on the other side is taking a pic of a bike also. Then I see the two look very similar. Lugs, and seat in particular. Is this beauty matched with another on the other side of the wall?

cheers bud, it's sooo smooth to ride, thinking less layback on a new seatpost and a longer stem just to distribute the weight a bit better. Got a dura ace seatpost on the waywhich I'm pretty stoked about, your stable is just lovely man!!

Is that a 700C/700C frame or a 700C/650C version? The front wheel seems to be smaller in diameter. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Looks rad. Absolutely great.
