We are on a roll with Mosaic lately, so here's another sweet build. Kris's Mosaic RS-2 features True Temper OX Platinum tubing,  ENVE 2.0 fork.IMG_0373 Custom geometry and paint are included with every Mosaic at Blacksmith Cycle.IMG_0383 More build details, photos and wheel choices show up after the jump... The little things do matter - precious build details and a jaw-dropping luscious paint job.IMG_0378 The goods = Chris King headset hugs the Mosaic "Tree of Life" brass head badge.IMG_0375 We've been loving the new Fizik components almost as much as Aaron's welds.IMG_0384 Does made-by-hand-in-fucking-america mean anything to you? It does to us.IMG_0380 Xentis Squad 7.5 clincher wheels and SRAM Force 22 do make a lovely combination.IMG_0382 The project… Kris wanted a fun, smooth, durable race bike that was more unique than the BIG NAMES. The results… Another home-run from the Mosaic crew - a near-perfect steel bike, smartly equipped too. The build details… Frame: Mosaic RS-2 with standard headset and BSA BB Fork: ENVE 2.0 carbon custom painted Groupset: SRAM Force 22 Cockpit: Fizik R1 stem and carbon "bull" compact bar Post: Fizik R1 Carbon 27.2 Wheels: Xentis Squad 7.5  pictured Tires: Challenge Strada 25 mm pictured Pedals: Mavic Zxellium SL Cages: Arundle Stainless not pictured Saddle: Fizik Arione R1 The Rating… Yet again, Zero Fucks Given. The real build -  custom H Son Plus Archetypes with Continental GP 4-Seasons. IMG_1067 For year-round riding, this bike is super smooth, yet still lively.
