There’s more slope than what’s shown in the pic cause the rear dropout is off the ground. But I like slope Image

Custom - but not for me.

There will definitely be some slope. Hoping it's not too aggressive. Expecting 5ish degrees.

I was attracted to a custom Firefly #419 it would have fitted me perfectyl , DI2 , PF30 , 44mm headtube , 2,5 3 ° slooping , 1 inch chainstays : that sort of things
was short on funds ( sutdent , and salary are low here ) otherwhise ....

You won't regret that choice mosaic make some damn racy bikes

Hey, if you found one that fits that's what counts -- I just assumed from the ISP.

Can't wait to see the finished product.

Just found this while poking around this morning. The photo was snapped by Caley Fretz at the 2013 NAHBS

Pretty distinct top tube pattern, eh?

Do you plan on mounting a SWAT box on the DT?

Fretz's homeboy James Huang took one too. Are you sure that top tube design doesn't spell something?

I asked the seller that question. He said if it is a word, it's not obvious. His transcription was:

Biciopicio seems like some play on bicycle & principio (Latin for beginning).
Or maybe it's some illuminati s**t.
