Ah, the moment arrived today when the frame was carried in to the shop and I saw the Silvio name in huge letters on the box. Since I was working I couldn't open it right away... waited until lunch and pulled the main frame and suspension fork out to show the guys. They still don't get it, but...

Santa said okay. Once I'm comfortable with my own Silvio a tailbox is inevitable. I started a drawing and would love to hear your opinions: The red is the tailbox, the blue is lycra or similar flexible fabric. The prototype will most likely be coroplast, as I have a 4 4x4 sheets waiting to...
