This is so fucking incredible. Like, absolute dream bike. The stuff I see come out of the Yamaguchi School makes me so envious; you did a great job, and I wholly back your choice in paint!
Also, the stem is beautiful work. So nice.

This is bike looks so unique. Pink is not my favorite color but the way this bike is set up with aggressive tires it has a nice balance.

Thanks a lot!
Ever since I saw Andy's opening part in MASH riding that pink Samson I've always wanted a pink bike.
Then I saw all those bright pink Vanilla Speedvagen and that sealed the deal.
