1990 Moots

The Moots frames always have a lot of interesting details, some obvious but other not so obvious.   The detailed lug work is subtle around the seat lug area but not so subtle when painted pink with an eye and tongue added.  The stays have a very subtle radius that is supposed to absorb some vibration.  The ovalized stem matches the ovalized chain stay bridge.  The rear brake is on a Moots mount which allows you to change the position of the brake mounts so you can run different brakes or different sized wheels.
