Along with a couple of frame repaints, I'm endeavoring to finish Tinas mixte. The monolug is almost doe. I've added the ports for the laterals, now just want to reshape the points.<br />

It's slotted and relieved. The slot is short and close to the lug point. I always ream the the seat tube to a very tight tolerance to the seat post.
