That's amazingly beautiful, but why put the tire so close to the seattube?

Malik,

Were you present when the builder was constructing your frame?

Nothing wrong with cables out top. Wafer thin clearance for rear tyre is cool in my book as I have bike like that too. Lovely build.

Super bike! I like everything about it, including the cable routing. Nice job!

I like it too, except for the wafer thin rear tire clearance. I presume there's adjustment screws on the inner side of the dropouts that you could use to bring out the rear wheel a bit for some added clearance?

And great photos!

Perfection.....really nice. I'd like a geared version with downtube shifters.

Paintjob looks so oldschool, i think everything matches well here, especially the saddle and saddle bag :)
