Both Waterford & Independant Fabricators have usefull areas on their websites for viewing different decal / color combinations. Waterford even has a polished stainless lug option, although I could find only one pic showing them - on a dark blue frame, very nice! Of course, there are no lugs to be found at the http://www.ifbikes site. Richard Rose (Toledo, Ohio - 75 today but 45 tomorrow!)(degrees that is)
