I had never heard of or seen this man's work until I read an article about him receiving Builder of the Year at the Rocky Mountain Bicycle Show. Definitely been missing out! Might need to post a new response in the "Dream Bike" thread. Nice to see the results that true passion for one's craft inspire.

I think I'll reply to my own post. Aren't those welds GORGEOUS?!

More importantly no undercut or rool over but were the tubes purged befor welding

Thank you, I have found my next bike. Now to knock over a few banks.

If I could weld like that I would weld up one weld then walk around and show it off to everyone I ran into. Twice.

Nice! What's the purpose of the solid rim?

Aerodynamic. That's their time-trial bike, so it's set-up to cut through the wind. Notice how flat the fork and seat-post are as well. A lot of the companies that have carbon-fiber bikes even set up the frame to be more aerodynamic.
