Hi Chuck and all,

The lug is a little "bulky" looking for my taste. I would also prefer that the tops of the seat stays end in a taper rather than the existing flat top.

The "forked" treatment of the stays and fork blades at the dropouts is elegant and similar to those on my Alpine frame built by Fred Kelly.

The decal graphics are "Flash Gordonish" and fit the paint scheme. I wonder where from the frame the sparks fly out during riding?
