martin's 40th birthday prezzie!

here's martin's columbus life track frame. this one was a real treat to work on, it's my first with any real amount of hand carved lug work, i had so much fun making it!! it's also the first made with a complete columbus tubeset, and probably the lightest in its size range that i have made to date, just look at that beefy back end!!! the paint job turned out spot on and martin was over the moon. it is a real treat to see people so happy with something you made for them. i'm looking forward to seeing it built up in full dura-ace track!!

    right-o, that porsche-inspired one down below just inspired the early stage of a boner down below on my end... i want one. the bike, that is. etristram@gmail.com, give me a price on something like that so i can wish i could afford it.

    The cut-outs on the head tube lugs looks rad.

    This is probably my favorite work from feathers. I really want one too.
