Chapman Cycles:
Do I explain what part of the bicycle frame this is or should I just let people use their imagination? It’s pointy, functional, and it looks nice so that’s all that matters. Post brazing close-up. #brazing #flux #chapmancycles

Seizure inducing slow motion filing under the fluorescent lights. #filing #bastardfile ##internalcablerouting #chapmancycles

Remind me to tell the story of how I made that bike and then cut the head tube up. #bilaminate #headtube #missing #chapmancycles
Chapman Cycles:
Head tube silver brazed in place. #bilaminate #headtube #chapmancycles

When the macro lens is on, I take advantage of it. Polished stainless diver bell cable stop on a polished stainless chain stay. #himom #diverbell #bicyclebuilding #silverbrazing #polishedstainless #chapmancycles

It’s looking more and more like a bike every day. While I’m on the tail end of this build, I already have my drawing ready for the next one. 2018, I’m coming for you! #bicyclebuilding #filletbrazing #silverbrazing #bestofbothworlds #chapmancycles

Double M5 4mm socket head seat post binder bolts on the latest build. It’s not necessary but the single M6 would’ve looked lonely on there. #brass #binders #chapmancycles

Making a stem that I wasn’t planning on making for the latest road bike but happy with the way it’s coming out. #filletbrazed #stem #chapmancycles
Chapman Cycles:
Basecoats on this stem are done and I’m now onto clearcoat and lining. Busy stem. Getting out of my comfort zone on this bike.
Chapman Cycles:
Not the typical seat cluster I do but I’m liking it. Double M5 binders straight cut with recessed shim for a standard 27.2 post. Again, out of my comfort zone. #seatcluster #polishedstainless #chapmancycles

Today was a 1-Shot day. Finishing details on this fork with Sax Max crown and blades. Thanks for making these pieces available to other framebuilders @therichardsachs #cardsuits #saxmax #fork #1shotpaint #chapmancycles
Chapman Cycles:
Spending too long on little things when I need to be focusing on the big picture. Anyway, here is a tiny thumbscrew that I made today for a quick release for a rechargeable light. Maybe it was worth it? #thumbscrew #polished #stainlesssteel #softjaws

Finished painting the details and polishing this bike. Three more bikes to go before NAHBS on February 16th! #nahbs2018 #nahbs #chapmancycles
