Bike Porn: The Beast's Clockwork

It was a slow news day and I've got a blog to maintain, so on my way out of work I shot some pics of the Robeast Trevor Crayton's Clockwork Track bike. It's been sitting in the racks for weeks now and it was a nice overcast day so I figured why not.

I posted some indoor pics of the bike last summer which can be found here

For those of you who may not have heard of Clockwork, they are a custom frame builder residing in South Minneapolis and do both lugged and fillet braze construction. Recently I featured a very cool trials bike with a novel rear axle system from them. You can link to the trials bike below. Clockwork's website can be found here

I believe the paint, which has very nice redish sparkle that doesn't come through in the photos, was done at Dirt Designs in Bloomington.

it's all in the details, notice the anno chainring bolts and Campagnolo crank bolt

I believe these are the Sachs Newvex lugs (If I'm wrong I'm sure someone will correct me)
