Custom Wayne Evans Bike recently picked up

I was home sick the beginning of last week when this showed up for sale on a facebook site. Too neat looking at too good of a price to pass up. The seller said it was made by a Wayne Evans in Denver in the mid 90s. I haven't been able to find any info on the builder but it seems like a really nice bike with honest battle scars.

It's got some really cool lugwork, paint, and a sweet headbadge. Made of Columbus EL Oversize with three bottle cage mounts and rear rack compatible. Right now it's sporting a Dura Ace 7400 setup mainly. I just got done putting it back together and plan to get a few test rides in before I decide how to proceed with it. Right now it's got a fairly heavy set of wheels and 700 x 32 tires.

If I really like this I think I've got a source for someone who can match and touch up the paint. It's got some pretty serious damage from a dropped chain on one stay.

If anyone has any info on this builder I'd love to hear it.


Anyway, some quick cellphone pics I grabbed when I got done.












Love this headbadge!
