Does anyone know when Mr. Konno had his car accident? Funny, but in most aspects of life, the date of a person's demise is a fairly simple fact to uncover. Bike builders seem to have mythologic deaths that take years. Sante Pogliaghi for one....he may still be alive.

I digress......does anyone know when Konno stopped building frames? Is he still alive or now dead? What are the most collectable years for 3Rensho? I know that Makino was a foreman and took over afterwards...but the rets is really blurry in the archives and on yellowjersey.

Thanks
