There's a drawing on this page:

http://kogswell.com/sitePR.php

The color is black.

Kogswell 700C fenders will not be available until 2008.
But others may fit (I don't know the OD of other fenders.
Does anyone?)

The forks left Taiwan today, so in three weeks you can
all start ordering frame/fork sets.

The sets will be $540 (no fenders) and will include a
headset, seatpost and misc stuff. And since the
frame and fork can ship in one box, shipping will
be $50 instead of $80.

Like the other P/R 2.0 models, the 700C x 59
model is a light steel frame with a light steel fork.
The fork blades are light. The stays are light. The
top tube is 28.6mm x 0.5. The down tube is 28.6
x 0.6. The lighter more flexible down tubes seem
to have done the trick. The 26" and 650B models
have a dreamy ride and I expect the 700C model
to be just as good.

To me it's sort of funny how the 28.6 x 0.6 down
tube and the 31.8 x 0.4 down tube have nearly
the same moment of inertia, but one costs
a third of the other.
