NIGHTCAP "Comito Shipwreck"
NIGHTCAP "Comito Shipwreck"
THE NIGHTCAP IS AN ELEGANT TOP CAP FOR 1-1/8 INCH THREADLESS HEADSETS. THE NIGHT CAP IS 100% DESIGNED, PRODUCED AND FINISHED RIGHT HERE IN CHESTER, CONNECTICUT (USA) OUT OF BRASS AND HELD SNUG WITH AN AMERICAN MADE TITANIUM BOLT. THE DESIGN OF THE CAP UTILIZES A THIN PROFILE WITH A GENTLE DOMED SHAPE TO HELP CATCH THE LIGHT AND TO KEEP THE WEIGHT DOWN (FOR THOSE OF US WHO CARE ABOUT THE WEIGHT OF A TOP CAP). EACH CAP IS HAND FINISHED, SO THERE WILL ALWAYS BE SMALL VARIATIONS IN COLOR AND SHINE. MUCH LIKE OURSELVES, THE BRASS WILL AGE WITH TIME AND EXPOSURE TO THE ENVIRONMENTS OUR BICYCLES TAKE US THROUGH. AS TIME GOES ON, EACH ONE BECOMES MORE UNIQUE.
It is worth noting that the green/blue patina is a bit of an unpredictable process. Sometimes it yields a deeper green and other times it has more of a light sea foam blue. I even catch occasional pink or black undertones. I do my best to repeat the process consistently but they do what they do. I love these subtle variations and I hope you do too!
