Finally finished (sort of) the 
Asong Asero project. 
Ave took his time in building this frame set but it's worth every minute of the wait.
As most of you know already, the geometry of this bike was inspired by the 
ASKAL. For the unfamiliar, 
askal is slang for a
song kalye which means 
street dog or 
stray dog. And indeed it is snappy, agile and always ready to pounce. Just like a real 
askal.
Even on temporary set-up and raw finish, it never fails to slap a smile on my face whenever i ride this 
iron dog. I suspect the cantilevered one-off-made-to-measure track ends and the off-set seattube/BB/downtube junction -which results to a slammed rear wheel, are the reason for the very responsive "feel" of the ride. Plus the 77º HTA with the 20mm fork rake.
More after the break.
