This build was completed by Dan and he managed an excellent finish the colour matches his favourite

9 June 2021 · 1 min read·By Bamboo Bicycle Club

Dan completed this build with an excellent finish — the teal colour matches his favourite, and the detail proves the craft.

This close-up shows where seat stays and chainstays meet the modular dropout. The teal finish is flawless: smooth, even, the kind of colour work that elevates a frame from functional to beautiful.

Modular dropouts provide versatility. Different configurations suit different builds — belt drive, chain drive, various wheel positions. The machined aluminium integrates with the painted stays cleanly.

Workshop backdrop with plywood walls shows this was photographed fresh from completion. The satisfaction of a finished rear triangle, properly aligned and properly coloured.

Choosing a colour that means something personal makes the bike more than transport. Dan's favourite teal will carry memories alongside function.

Detail shots like this reveal the care that full-bike photos miss. Dan clearly took time getting this finish right. 💎
