In the fall of 2015, I embarked on a project to build myself a fixed gear bicycle using a set of the famous 3Rensho Modeulo lugs. The build is chronicled in this Bikeforums thread, where I kept a photo diary of the process. At the time, I didn’t know this would be the last frame I’d build for several years. I’ve been riding and loving this bike for years since then, but I never got around to photographing and writing about the finished product. This is my favorite bike, and I finally have some great photos of it. Read on to learn about the inspiration for the frame, the copper plating, and the build.
