Steve Kurt sent me two more scanned articles to share with you and you ilk; these are from the July 1995 Bicycle Guide. Feel free to forward the links to all your ilk.

The first is called "Framed Art" and has write-ups of renowned KOF framebuilders Roland Della Santa, Richard Sachs, Glenn Erickson, and Columbine (John and Richard Murphy). All are one- or two-man shops turning out a small number of very fine frames.

The first page is here: http://bulgier.net/pics/bike/Articles/Framed_Art_p1_DellaSanta_(July'95_ BicycleGuide).jpg (To continue with p2-p8, browse back to http://bulgier.net/pics/bike/Articles/ )

The second article, "Innovators", though a bit off topic, has some KOF interest. It has write-ups of Hank Folsom ("Henry James" lugs), Grant Petersen of Rivendell, and Team Motorola Directeur Sportif Jim Ochowicz. The Och article contains the wonderful quote "Lance Armstrong is one of Och's big hopes for the future". To which I can only add, with 20/20 hindsight, "Duh!"

The first page is here: http://bulgier.net/pics/bike/Articles/Innovators_p1_(July'95_BicycleGuid e).jpg (To continue with p2-p7, browse back to http://bulgier.net/pics/bike/Articles/ )

or if those long URLs wrap and don't work, just go to http://bulgier.net/pics/bike/Articles/ and browse to the articles.

Thanks again Steve!
