Subject: [CR] "Equilateral" frameset


Can some one on the list point me to material I can read about the "Equilateral" frames which I understand were designed for TT. I think Colnago made one and perhaps other frame builders copied his design. I have not been able to find any achived thread on these things.

And, on another subject, my conceit is that I don't collect bikes that I can't ride. The truth is, however, that I have a number of racing bikes with tubular wheels (120mm spacing) that I ride very seldom because the post-Katrina roads here are among the worst in this hemisphere. I would like to build up some wheels with clincher rims that will still look somewhat right. I have plenty of good hubs but I'm clueless about rims. Thoughts and/or suggestions?
Thanks.
