Barry Scott's Lugged Steel Travel Bike: "Poop Bitch"

This is the frame and fork that I built in November 2007 in the chromo brazing class. I Used "Ritchie-issimo" lugs and a mix of tubing. Bilenky did the S&S Couplers and paint.

Ive needed a travel bike for a long time . This one is called Poop Bitch and it took its first trip to N.A.H.B.S. [in Portland]. There's nothing as nice as being somewhere other than home and having your own bike. [UBI note: Frame building students are not permitted to install S&S couplers in our frame classes. S&S requires that these be installed by a manufacturer-approved frame builder. Barry had Stephen Bilenky install the couplers on his bike. S&S maintains a list of approved builders on their web site.]
