Re: Kirk frames
Cycle Fanatsy in Orange, CA Paints thier frames. This shop is the total Opposite of Cycleart. I would just bet they don't want to named in this e-mail. The last time I got a frame done I had to call for an appointment just so they knew I was coming and they could open the Office Door. Very "Skunk Works" like operations. But I think they have ridden a few of kirk's pieces. See Contact below

Larry, I think you are confusing Kirk Precision (magnesium frame) with
David Kirk Frameworks.

Vlad Luskin asked: Does anyone have information regarding Kirk Frameworks
beyond what's on their web site. I am looking for opinions on workmanship,
ride quality, etc. http://www.kirkframeworks.com/
Since David Kirk only established his company in June 2003, this is indeed an impressive website. It sounds to me like his time with Serotta and Carl Strong has certainly provided the sort of "resume" that one would think would make for the kind of product shown on the site. I'll be interested also to hear from listmembers about his bikes. I'm glad to see another "Keeper of the Flame" enter the business. Bozeman, Montana is a wonderful place to gain creative thoughts from the surroundings as well. Lou Deeter, Orlando FL
