Subject: [CR]Cool new lug pictures from Peter Weigle

Kirk Pacenti just sent me some new pix of Peter Weigle's interpretation of the Pacenti lugs. Nice! Check out http://bulgier.net/pics/bike/FrameParts/Pacenti/Weigle16.jpg http://bulgier.net/pics/bike/FrameParts/Pacenti/Weigle17.jpg http://bulgier.net/pics/bike/FrameParts/Pacenti/Weigle18.jpg

Especially the last one, a beautiful photo even if you don't know anything about what it's a picture of.

I swear, Weigle just keeps getting better. These Pacenti lugs have a unique style right out of the bag, but Peter's extra swoops esp in the headlugs in the 3rd picture really spoke to me, reminiscent of, I don't know, 60's swingin' bachelor pad or Tiki Lounge? Tex Avery cartoon? Somethin'. Wife Laurie says they remind her of a Vargas Girl painting with their exaggerated better-than-real voluptuousness, the light color of the tubes looking like their diaphanous gowns.

Or it could just be the beer talking...
