Patience is the key to this latest NJS build by Lawrence. After completing all the Suntour Superbe NJS groupset up to the cogs and painting the frameset with a high gloss silver, this is a very extreme and class build. If you experienced waiting your items all the way from Japan and having a really hard time paying all the taxes and whatever bullsh*ts in the EMS then you know how patience is well played on this one.. And as always, Ave Maldea never failed to give us the smooth welds and very good finish of Law's desired geometry of this custom build. Watch out for more images and his wife's counterpart of the build.
