A sneak preview of a build coming next week. X-small Lynskey Helix sporting some beautiful etched logos. This is a killer upgrade that adds some stealth and durability. The stock decals seem to hold up fine, but nothing compared to an etched set of DNA logos.
1-1/8" steerer tube and external headset, standard fare which will be plenty stiff for such a small rider.
Beautiful Lysnkey tubing, twisted for this Helix and finished with etched DNA logos.
ENVE fork, can't go wrong with this one. It has quickly become that standard that builders reach for.
68mm threaded bottom bracket with asymmetrical chain stays.
One more beautiful detail of a Helix, the clover dropouts. These are made by Lynskey and reserved for their top models. Want excellent shifting? Try a titanium derailleur hanger.
Another nice little touch on the rear brake bridge: a clover carried over from their logo.
This Helix will be rolling on some 2012 Mavic Ksyrium SL wheels and Continental GP4000s tires.
A nice detail shot of the finish on this beautiful frame. Not only is it durable, but we can care for it in house if something does somehow scratch the finish.
Great detail shot of the Lynskey DNA etched finish.
You know where this one came from.
More information and pictures coming next week....

XS Lynskey Helix, Coming Soon.....
Lynskey Cooper - XS with SRAM Force/Rival mix
Here's a sweet "little" build. An x-small Lynskey Cooper with a nice SRAM mix of components, HED Bastogne wheels, Vittoria EVO CX clinchers, and a Salsa cockpit.
This one was built up for a rider at roughly 5' even, with the intent of beginning the journey into road riding.
Titanium frame, Alpha-Q carbon fork, 700c wheels on this x-small. Normally on a bike this size we'd really lean toward a 650c, but if you already have wheels and want to make it work, we can.
Beautiful decals are easy to replace. One of the great aspects of Ti and Lysnkey's finish specifically is that we can take care of it in-house. We have a few tricks to handle scratches, though you'd really need to do some damage to leave a mark on your Ti frame. We can also order replacement decal kits in a number of colors to customize the frame.
Lynskey uses a beautiful head badge on all of their bikes. It's also available as a key chain, a nice touch for the cyclist in your life who has "everything".
SRAM Force, a bit of an unsung hero of the SRAM lineup. The vast majority of the performance of Red at a much more affordable price.
