Been Meaning to put these on for a while  ::)
Here's a few pics only take a min to scroll through , but took about 2hrs to braze up .
Pictures don't do it justice .

It's always the same routine brazing frames for Brian curtis
Start with
Rear drop outs
Bottom bracket
Seat post
Head tube
Forks ...

Enjoy .... Ohh last pic is my brazing  :LolLolLolLol:

Got to love a braised joint  :smitten:
Sixteen thirty-two. What is that? A year?   No, it's your top score on Pole Position.
