Aluminum CX frame for Chicago

 With luck this one will go out UPS today. It is a 7005 aluminum CX frame with a Ritchey WCS carbon fork painted to match. This frame shows that rim brakes are not dead yet !

 One of the standout features is the sterling Jen Green headbadge, not seen often on aluminum frames.
This one will see some muddy times in the greater Chicago area for sure.

Steel big tire CX/Gravel bike for SF

 This one will get some NOX rims on White Industry hubs with Bruce Gordon Rock 'n Roll tires next week. The frame has Prestige chain stays which provide a ton of tire room.
 The drive train is Sram CX-1 Force, simple and pretty much to go-to 1X setup for this kind of bike.
 The fork is an Enve painted to match. This is one of my more favorite shades, one that I used on my fourth frame back in 1979.
And here's the happy owner....hope that he has many great adventures on this machine.
