very nice. Look at that long chainstay...is it an older bike or do they make touring rigs like that still? Also, what's up with all those headset/stem spacers? Is that a touring thing too?

Yeah, long chainstays are the only way to go on a touring bike, and no Ted, not converting to SS. I have another bike build but that'll probably be in the summer.

That's a very nice looking bike, how much did this one set you back? Is the Brooks saddle standard?
