Very nice!!

I love steel. I am just finishing having a steel frame made for me, local (Providence, RI) shop, CircleACycles.

Its all done, now I just have to get to their shop and clean parts as they come off my old bike to transfer with him to the new one. I did get a new stem, headset and handlebar, though. The parts I'm moving over are Ultegra.

Even though I have a steel specialized allez, I missed the classic geometry and (the look of the) lugs of my older steel bike that got stolen. And when I got a nice bonus at the end of last year, I decided to go for it. I could have gotten a steel frame from one of the Italian giants for pretty much the same cost, but I thought it would be fun to go the custom route and support a local frame-builder.

Its made from Dedacciai Zero.

The guy who built it up, put together some pictures of the process:
