The Annapurna has to be one of the prettiest frames ever made as well as one of the most time consuming. Each tube intersection has a faux lug reinforcement that is then fillet brazed. It is obvious that extra time was spent perfecting the fillets. The area around the bottom bracket has a very melted or fluid look to it. This bike is outfitted with pretty standard parts for the custom bikes of the era: Phil hubs and bottom bracket, Shimano drive train and Suntour Roller Cam Brakes.
