I call this color 'blacklight' purple. It really looks amazing in the sun. Too bad that this photo was taken in the late afternoon. The fork is a Whiskey through-axle version, the first that I have had in the shop. It was provided by the customer. The frame is set up for a 31.6 mm seat post so that in internal battery can be used. I also made a large hole in the interior of the BB shell so that the junction box could be fitted inside the downtube.
The blue decals were special order , not something that I stock. There's a lot of special touches to this frame that will no doubt see some mud duty before the end of the season.

Disc brake CX frame with matching carbon fork
Here's another frame for Ashville-this one is a team aluminum CX frame for racing. The bigger head tube accommodates the tapered steerer on this fork.
The whole package is pretty light-I don't remember quite how light but it felt that way while I was boxing it up.
The tubing is mostly my standard kit-NOS Easton top tube, the rest a mix of tubing from Dedaccai and Taiwan.

This frame and fork are going to Ashville, N.C. , a place where a number of my bikes are going these days. There's some good riding there and some bike companies are based there. A number of folks from these and other companies in the south have a CX team and I have built the bulk of there frames. This one is a bit outside the norm but I know that it will get ridden a ton.
