I'll update this as the build happens, but here we go!!

This bike is a replacement for a customer's crashed Musseuw MF-XX.
He wanted something even smoother-riding, with a "dream bike" vibe, and we created this!

Passoni Light Steel, meant to mimic the look of Passoni's Mirror model but with the more modern XCR Max tubing.

Frame, fork and paint-matched parts are now in...

Frameset is splendid but crying for some King Ti cages, these black and white plastic are vulgar

I agree with the post above, either some Chris King cages or something stainless.

It is not a taper headtube i think. It accepts 1 1/8 straight steerer fork.

Integrated headtube is what it is.

Thx gang.

Yup, the headtube is not tapered, as @gravity mentioned.

Cages are full carbon, not plastic, but we are a stocking King Cage dealer (FYI, not the same company as Chris King) so the customer does have that option!

Post is not paint-matched, sorry :(

Here's a quick shot of the rear stays, more to come...
