Speed of Light

Back in my days of designing fiber optic products, I worked with a firmware engineer named Min. We share a similar interest in cycling and late last year Min signed up for a new road frame. This project has taken many months to complete and the final results are gorgeous - thanks Min for being patient! Special thanks to Jason Grove (El Camino Fab) for building this beauty to exacting standards. And special thanks to Ryan Bontrager for assembling it overnight for me!

Frame Details:
Columbus Spirit Steel Tubeset
Paragon BB Shell
Breezer Dropouts
Finish by Cycle Fantasy

Build Kit:
Reynolds Ouzo Pro fork w/50mm rake
King headset of course
Reynolds Attack Carbon Clincher Wheelset
SRAM Rival drivetrain/brakes
FSA carbon bar/post
Ritchey 4-axis stem
Fizik saddle/bar tape
Michelin Pro3 tires

As shown 16.25lbs without pedals. Holy sh*t that's steel too!
