Icarus Frames Jons Road Bike

Ian Sutton’s latest creation continues to demonstrate his innovative eye for design and technical ability. His Leviathan time trial bike astounded us, and this road frame for Jon is a departure from pure steel to include a touch of carbon fiber.

Ian developed his use of carbon fiber during his stint at Seven Cycles and incorporated the material into the seat stays. The paint is superb, a satin finish by Circle A Cycles. An EDGE/ENVE fork completes the front end, and, combined with a steel main frame, will produce a reliable, compliant ride. The Icarus feather head badge gives me the impression of a Mohican heritage.

Justin Keena has done a fantastic job of capturing the details, see more on the Icarus flickr stream, and bookmark Ian’s website here.
