More details to follow. For now, the first photos of the finished frame...

That engraved lucky cat is fantastic.

Thank you. I went for the Chinese "zhāocáimāo" rather than Japanese Maneki-neko, because...well...China. I enjoyed doing the graphic design and seeing my artwork turn out so well on the frame. Amy at Waltly has been very easy to work with. I turned my final drawing into a blueprint that's already hanging on my wall.

That looks really nice , been looking at getting Waltly to build a gravel frame for me as well

Behold Lucky Cat.

That's a beautiful frame and build!


Do you have a weight for the frame by any chance?

Thanks!

After changing out some bottle and accessory mount bolts for more minimalist ones the frame weighed in at 1840g and the fork I chose (the beefier one with more tire clearance is 530g.
