Its that time again- team CX frames

 Half of the month of June has been dedicated to building team CX aluminum frames. I would have done a larger batch but I only had enough rear dropouts and flat mounts for six frames.
 Not all of these frames are for the team but most of them are built in the current team style. For the next year or so this is how they will appear- flat mount rear disc , thru-axle dropouts, flattened top tube and internal rear brake routing.

Tall steel CX frame with seat mast

 The 6'7" rider on the team ordered this one for CX and gravel racing. He's been racing a good many years and decided that this formula was the best for his needs.
 This is essentially a CX version of the 'Ultimundo' platform without the internal brake routing.The rider already had post mount brakes so the bike was set up that way.
The fork is a an Enve CX that has been painted to match The frame is surprisingly well under 5 lb. even at this size.
