Aw hell.
Turns out I know this guy!
Really great dude too. Knows far more than I can even pretend to and has been in the industry/community a long while.
Hopefully we can get him to post his other bikes.

I got some sweet white fsa wing pros and a matching white fsa stem that would look ballin on that vig
plus compact bars so you could slam dat stem
I dig this bike.
Me too.
Itâs made by Gunnar then re-branded, I think.
Made by Waterford for Milwaukee Bike Co (Benâs Cycles). It is NOT the same as any Gunnar model - itâs similiar to the StreetDog but we used different geometry, dropouts and tubing. This was the first bike out of the first batch we had made - also the only one that got a prototype Bronze headbage instead of the Pewter ones that the other first 50 got.

Yeah, I know Waterford and Gunnar are two lines of the same business in the old Schwinn factory. (I talked to Richard a few times when I got a Crosshairs a few years back.)
Waterford is complete custom, Gunnar is production line in limited sizing and colors, this frameset is production line in limited sizing and one color. Why is the distinction so important? Do the Gunnars only get built by the B-list welders?

âWeâ is/were Benâs Cycles. I used to work there and did the work - geometry, tubing selection, contract with Waterford for building, contract with a powder coater, design decals & headbadge, etc⌠to get Milwaukee Bike Co up & going. I still do some work with them, but now work for the Hayes Bicycle Group.
I had a chance to ride one of those Orange Ones once. It was pretty nice.
I considered getting one with canti bosses for ss cross for a minute, but got a Pompino instead coz cheaper/gusseted, TAF neon green.
What kind of tire clearance does the Orange One have. I kinda want.
^ Orange One info. Milwaukee has also just released a geared version of this frame.

Good thing you put that PBR label on the rim, otherwise I wouldnât have known that wasnât a dedicated track machine
^ itâs actually a âBelle City Bikersâ sticker that a friend gifted me.
It is a dedicated track machine, raced weekly @ Washington Park Velodrome.
