Yeah, she built the whole thing too. She's really awesome and there are many gorgeous bikes on her Flickr. I've had it linked on this page too.

rims are ugly :(
Posted over 10 years ago
yeah rims are the only weakness of this build.
i think some people don't know about non-machined brake surface rims

If idea of this bike is about modern components, H+Son Archetype black rims will suit it much better.

This bike is perfect in every possible respect, except one, RISERS. Some NITTO Track Drops would look awesome.
