The last few weeks have been filled with building steel frames. Here are a few recent ones almost ready to be picked up or shipped out , depending on destination. This one is just going to the east bay so there is a chance the customer might be able to drop by and pick it up personally.
This is a typical Team Euro meant for racing in Nor-Cal.
This pink one is also a bay area customer and a member of the racing team. He is not getting the team color but has decided to go rogue in a way. The tubeset is really light and the frames is well under 4 lbs.
This is the most recent path racer almost ready for assembly. The owner wanted no decals and a flat clearcoat. It actually looks very nice in person-the photos don't really convey the look very well.
This customer is also a bay area resident and will pick this up as a complete bike ready for fixed gear touring....that's right, I'm not kidding-trans continental fixed gear touring to be more precise. He's a mightier man than I.
This frame will not be picked up by the owner as it is bound for Taipei, Taiwan. The black came out glassy smooth. This is a Team euro that will accept fenders and a braze -on front derailleur.
The wishbone seatstay was a request from the customer. I tried to bring in the seat stays a little to make it a little sleeker than the mountain bike version.
The headtube will have a sterling silver head badge instead of the usual decal, a nice upgrade to the overall look.
This rack represents about 5 weeks of work. It's like a rainbow right now.

You better be menacingly fast if you're going to race a pink frame. That black Euro Racer looks super sweet and makes me want a cross bike.
Libya Solutions
1 - United Nations: discussion (part) 'democracy' with 'country' (including 2 points - found: Consensus in the 'country')
+ Protesters' about 2 / 3 - The country people '(anti-government) -> governments' innovation completely. " Approximately 1 / 3 'country people' -> compromise 'response'.
+ The 'leader' country: tenure (and vote 'trend': two times a term.)
2 - (Outside) no intervention (internal):
conflict 'protest' - 4 elements:
+ Authorities 'response' 'rights' (people).
+ Review: 'water quantity' 'against government' (Libya. ..) - how to resolve 'demanding' people.
+ 'Government' is not 'resolutions'' Security Council United Nations' (votes' absolute ') and' leader 'is not' banned movement. "
+ The 'link in the region' 'not opposed' (ie the Arab League, ASEAN, Africa ...).
3 - Apply 'military intervention' (external) - based on:
+ Article 7 - The United Nations Charter
+ A country (outside) no intervention. Number of coordinated water (shown: part - many 'people' World).
4 - Make 'intervention measures' 'outside' 'purpose':
+ Prevent conflict (violence): 'government' and 'people - oppose'.
+ Response: 'government solutions' and (require) 'protesters'.
+ Intervention (external): 'solution' and stop (escalation) 'conflict' and 'faction' (in water).
+ 'Required' 'the government' (is): Negotiation - meet 'the people' -> stop 'intervention' (population: the decision).
5 - The 'intervention' ('outside' or 'water' 'participation'):
+ Response: desire 'majority, World - purpose (' on ') (Section 4).
+ Do not 'responsible' build 'new government' (citizens 'decision').
+ The (problem) 'conflict' Left: the 'UN' 'coordination' in every country and region.
United Nations implement 5 'elements' (above) is:
- Avoid (condition - in Libya), the protesters 'conflict' (assert basic 'human'). 'Government' apply 'the protesters' armed -> create 'force' rebel: repression.
- Avoid: the wrong intervention (external) as 'constraints' (factors '4 '- Section 2) and ('4 Factors' section 4).
- The solution (on the) 'did not happen Civil War' (by 'community' is not 'recognized' and 'isolation'.
Government (will) meet the 'right people' and (will) 'no fear' 'protests'.
Human civilization: to know - the unified 'solution' (above) -> is not 'civil war'.
commentary 1:
Struggle with (the) 'Islamist ideology' and 'terrorist organizations' success in the Middle East - the countries in the region' striving democracy. "
1 - (when) The 'Middle East' achieve 'democracy' is:
+ Benefits and Life (People's) response.
+ People: 'participation' (good) in the 'government' (vote, requires' policy'...).
+ State: from 'people's' ownership and the 'power' properly executed.
Then:
People to participate in nation building (good) is 'to develop' (country) decided by the people themselves ('developing country': the level of 'intellectual', the 'satisfaction'.
The 'benefits' with 'the people'. "
2 - Prevent 'extremist Islamic ideology':
+ 'State' 'power' the right (not focused) and not 'some individuals'' spending power '(Reason: selective progressive and democratic' elections.)
The extremist Islamic ideology 'difficult' propaganda 'established: the State' Taliban style '.. By, 'Islamist ideology' applicable State 'Taliban model, the' accumulation of power '(' rule ') and' forced 'people (women lower benefits, lifestyle' draconian ' ...).
+ If 'sabotage': action 'life' (each 'people').
Government that 'the people' 'participation' at: the 'political apathy', with the 'opposition' policy. Meanwhile, 'the extremist Islamic organizations' (such as the AlQaeda organization'...): break 'the State' which 'people' less 'consensus'. 'Life' 'meet' so bad ... 'people' is not a strong fight.
'Terrorism' is: a / against 'the government' that people 'support' 'vote'; b / terrorism where 'public' as against 'the place to do business' (individual) people (life response: the 'public place' associated lifestyles life does not meet: the 'people' working poor and unemployed, so less' presence'...). Thus, 'rights' to people (a, b) they (will) fight 'keep well'.
+ Social Democracy: 'People' 'progress' (do not get dragged 'extremist Islamic ideology').
Middle Eastern countries like Egypt, Iran, United Arab Emirates, Lebanon, Iraq, Bahrain ... striving democracy (good): prevent 'the extremist Islamic organizations. "
Democracy (good) 'each country' shall not 'affect - the dominant' countries: Russia, U.S., China, Iran and other countries ... 'good contact'.
Solution Libya (next -> Resolution No. 1973 of the Security Council of the United Nations)
(3/23/2011, me and Development Programme UNDP United Nations; Le Thanh Duc 39 - 'Ngu Hai' - Vinh City)
'Coalition' 'Resolution 1973 of the United Nations' conflict and prevent violence against civilians.
Strategy (continued):
1 - 'coalition' - used (only) 'aircraft - the type monitored' supervision Libya.
a / - if 'Gadhafi government troops' use 'weapons' (heavy), such as tanks, artillery ... 'Allied forces' use 'jet' and 'missile': destruction.
b / - If: (repeat) occur 'conflicts - the Civil War' -> catastrophic 'ordinary people':
(When) a 'city' (or where): (continued) fighting took place -> 'coalition forces' use (group' infantry) 'landing': 'measures' to prevent (stop - both sides) - > then taking the (campaign)
Campaign (each place): (can) a day, a few days ... (optional) 'need time' (infantry) are present (there). Finished campaigns: withdrawal - 'instant' (group of soldiers) from Libya (the ground).
c / - 'infantry groups' implementation 'campaign' - to mobilize (from):
+ Warships; or
+ Countries' (near) to 'garrison' (temporary). When 'Mr. Gadhafi' 'resigned acceptance' -> 'troops' (where) retreat - 'instant' (end).
2 - The United Nations shall:
a / - Implementation: 'work' (humanitarian) with people.
b / - Promotion (all - the forces, factions ...) ceasefire. Negotiations 'establishment' 'Libyan authorities' new.
'Libyan government forces' (old) are allowed to 'join', 'son' of 'Mr. Gadhafi' allowed 'to participate' ('government of national reconciliation' new).
3 - 'Mr. Gadhafi' not 'involved' 'new government', because:
a / - (number of) 'the protesters' - 'object' many (previously).
b / - Army 'Mr. Gadhafi' used 'mercenaries' lot. Country by the military people (consensus 'participation' - protection).
c / - 'Mr. Gadhafi' leaders 'long', not the 'trend' 'human progress', lack of 'democracy'. Countries China, Russia, Venezuela ... (also) did not support - 'leaders' 'holding power' for many years and did not vote.
d / - 'Mr. Gadhafi' no 'response' interests' (most of) the people (protesters: life).
'Mr. Gadhafi' must go and the 'private property' (property right). The 'other assets': the 'people of Libya' - reconstruction using 'country'.
4 - With time, if:
- 'Mr. Gadhafi' not resign.
- 'Conflict - hinder': 'the new government set up' - 'disaster' the people '.
- Preventing 'the protesters' or 'oppose' (method).
Will: use the 'super-talented soldiers' arrest Mr. Gadhafi. Reason 'arrest' 'Mr. Gadhafi': 'International Court of Justice' will (then) to investigate: 'Mr. Gadhafi' attack 'protesters'.
(When) - start 'Mr. Gadhafi', will:
- 'New government' and 'the people': the decision; or
- The countries with the United Nations perspective, 'Mr. Gadhafi' 'yes or no' exile.
5 - 'democracy' - the executable (right), will:
The people of Libya - receptive: 'method' produce 'progress' and 'operating state' ('election'). Unlike 'old regime' - 'mode' poor production; income people - divided by 'oil' (mostly). People required: good labor rights.
Democracy: The 'resource' is fine - not the 'dominant' (to: management and procurement; transparency). At that time, Russia, America, China, France ... not 'influence'.
EU: production methods, management of social progress -> Libya cooperation: transfer of 'technology'. Geographic locations: Libya near Europe -> exchange efficiency.
'Gadhafi personally' threat reduction 'security - peace' in Europe: the European People's struggling (to prevent threats).
UN: discussion (all countries) - 5 points (as above) -> execute 'peace and human progress', 'Libya happy people'.
