James- Rob and I attended the Eisentraut workshop in Rutland, VT in 1979. At that time he expressed interest in working for Serrotta. I know that he did work for Serrotta at least shortly after the class. It wasn't until 1986, I think, that he became involved with Terry et al.

This thread on Rob is interesting in another vein. I am moving back home to Rochester, NY soon and I believe that Rob is still living and working there, Last I heard he was doing metal work/welding for artists, architects and those with more $ then cyclist typically have. It's in my plan to look him up after moving.

I met Rob Stowe around 1980 when we were both racing at the Empire State Games. I ran into him a couple times after that at various bike races. IIRC at that time he was working at Serrotta. Does that sound right?

Mark- Rob Stowe spun off Terry Precision and formed Phase 3 after a year or two (? timeline?), the very late 1980s I think. My best man was Georgena's first employee and carried on under Rob for a while. He got real good at brazing up drop outs after a few years of practice!
