Yep, this has bike of the year written all over it.

Especially love the fork caps.

In my mind the fastback stays seem a bit anachronistic with those big old-style scalloped lugs and two-tone paint… but that also makes it a unique frame.

I don’t like how that headset plays with the fork crown but otherwise this is #sweet.

So AJS doesn’t have a problem with the D-A 10 pitch!

Fantastic machine, the fast back seat stays are superb.

Very well finished frame guys, nice work. Gotta love DA 10 pitch.

What is the story with the paint job- it seems very retro inspired.

Not at all… In fact it is the only group allowed by the AJS head poohbahs

H I have always wanted to do a pre-NJS inspired build but also love modern aspects for San Rensho and Makino builds with the Kansei fork and fast back stays… So it’s kinda a mix of the old and new
