> The details on this 650B bike just kept coming at you. Racks and fenders
> were truly quick-release, secured by tiny quill-stem-type expander plugs
> fitting into the cylindrical fittings seen at the bridges and dropouts.
> And those dropouts, whew. Even the kickstand had a larger version of this
> same type of fitting, which made for a minimalist addition to the basic
> frame, barely noticeable with the optional parts removed.
>
> Lugs and paintwork were interesting as well. Two tones of blue for panels
> and trim and a tidy trim fade integrated seamlessly with the decals and
> decorated with two-tone box lining. There was a good level of style
> integration from a period-correct point of view, decals, engraving and
> lining.

> Hubs were Tipos with cartridge bearings fitted, round holes lined with
> blue.
> This bike was over-the-top, and along with the truly functional bamboo
> bikes by Calfee, left a lasting impression on me.

> I chose to ride a bike with fenders to this event (leaving my truck

> enough sleep. Luckily some other members seem to have taken up the slack
> and so we seem to have a pretty good collection of photos for the number
> of exhibitors represented.
