Funny you should mention this. I was at Witt's Bicycles in Hayward last week, where they're having a retirement sale until the end of the month. I scooped up a bunch of TA stuff, including new cyclotouriste chainrings for $10 each. Bay Area people should get in while the getting's good; although all the Campy stuff is gone, there's a complete early '80s Gipiemme gruppo new in the box.

Plus, there are a few builds of Mr. Witt's frames on display; definitely KOF, and quite elegant.
