7005 CX frame going to Seattle.
Wish that I had taken more photos of this one before it went into the box. It will be set up with Di II and fenders. You can just see the chain stay crossmember- it has a fender boss as does the seat stay bridge. There's eyelets welded onto the dropouts as well. It is going to Seattle, after all.......
Bro tour for rim brakes ? Mechanical shifting ?
Not only that but it has a level top tube. The local rider was very specific about the features on this 3 lb. 2 oz. frame. It's a serious road racing frame but it does not have the modern features that have shaped this particular model. That said, it has the same look and will be a lot easier to set up and maintain.

Latest Bro-Tour frame for In-Route
This one is going to another team mate and local rider. It is only 3 lb. 7 oz. and it is made to have all the brake lines hidden. The tubing is NOS Easton Elite with some Dedacciai chain stays. It is about as aero as I build for the road.
In-route WCCX frame going to Illinois.
Here's the latest version of the WCCX frame - different in that it is set up for the in-route brake line system so the head tube is different and the chain stays are roomier inside for the brake line. There are also big ports inside the head tube and BBshell for the rear brake line. This one will be used as a single speed with an EBB most of the time.
Big tire 7005 gravel frame for local rider
This customer has raced on the team for a number of years on a frame I built 10 years ago. This frame will replace it and it has a few tweaks to reflect this rider's current riding: Room for 700x50 tires, external brake routing, three bottle mounts, heavy duty top tube.
Instead of a straight CX race machine like his 2016 frame, this is a gravel frame with a longer wheelbase and a front end designed to work with the Enve Adventure fork. It still has a nod to the WCCX frame with the seat stay gusset and top routing.
Steel MTB frame for Reno, Nv.
This one is pretty clean with minimal stuff on it. It also has an integrated headset style head tube , one of the very last from Paragon. The brake mount is also Paragon as well out of my dwindling stash.
Tube set is a mix of Velospec and NOS True Temper along with my Tange wishbone seat stays. Chain stays are Columbus. This little frame is solid and should be good for the East Sierra dirt.
