As the owner of the trading name "Bespoke" in the UK, I am outing this frame on UK Ebay in order to say that I definitely, without a shade of doubt, and in no uncertain terms DID not build this frame...Thank goodness.
The word bespoke in the UK..and probably in the States is used to denote anything that is a "one-off" ,unique..made to personal requirements and measurements. Presumably the owner of this machine had it built up specially for him..to his specification.
I adopted the name "Bespoke Bicycle Company" way,. way back before the word became trendy and an overused epithet for everything and everything. Since that time I have had quite a few legal brushes with other builders who have used the adjective to describe their products. Recently..and I suppose that I should be fattered, but I note that a cycle shop has opend up in the UK calling itself "Bespoked".
Any way before anyone starts asking the question..the answer is a "Definitely NOT one of my machines"
