Better late than never...

I fell a bit behind this year due to a crazy summer.

In turn I tried really hard to catch back up but still wanted this last CX bike done in Sept. I do not see that happening! Anyway I hope to have it done by weeks end.

Today I used the Deckel for the first time. It is set-up with my new system of mitering the chainstays without being attached to the drop outs. Very cool design since it allows for the slot of the drop out to compensate for any variation in length (like under 1mm is a huge difference in length). Looking forward to getting this system quicker after I have done all styles of chainstays and have a sheet for all the different settings.

Here is right out of the mill and checking the tire clearance.

Cheers,
Drew
