The new frontier of stainless steel tubesets is now a consistent reality.  I can offer any frame in a stainless steel tubeset.  In general the US made KVA tubes are more cost effective in comparison to the Columbus options.

Fancy Bits come in two variety.

Waterbottle Bosses: $40 a pair.
Eyelets: $40 and up. Depends on dropout used, if made or moved.
Rack Mounts: $40 on seat stays.

2. Shiny Bits – Stainless Steel

Eye Headbadge: $55 Bolt on badge fashioned in stainless steel.
Eye Glass Headbadge: $65 The Eye badge with two arms that prevent cable rub on either side of the headtube.

Custom Stems: $225 +
After a few more requests I am offering stems again.
1” or 1 1/8” threadless stem for road or mountain bars, any rise or reach (within reason).  Very nice polished four bolt faceplate.

Can add braze-on for/with Japanese Crane brass bell.  Looks and sounds very pleasing.

If ordered with frame set, can be painted to match with up-charge. Otherwise black is the standard color.

Frame Fitting
For local customers, I can fit you here at the world headquarters on the Bernie Mikkelsen Sizer which accommodates a top-tube range of 46cm to 68cm.

Repair
Have an old high quality tig-welded frame that needs repair or modification? Call me up and let’s see if we can salvage that old friend. Would you like to turn that old hard-tail into a single speed? Add some disc mounts? Looking for a road to cyclo-cross conversion? Send over that 27″ frame for some canti-mounts.

Prototyping
If you have a design that needs to be realized in steel, stainless steel, or titanium I can be of service. Let my two decades of machine shop expertise see your project through its initial construction. Consultation for fabrication feasibility: Will your design translate to the machine shop environment? Essentially, have you designed something that is beyond standard manufacturing techniques? A relatively short conversation could save you a great deal of hassle further into the process.
