Subject: [CR] Keirin Frames ...


... was just looking at what i think is an older Stratos frame on ebay. thinned lugs (even in the bottom bracket area), flat engraved fork crown, proper seat stay attachment, and scalloped fork joints.

... what's not to like. here. total harmony and simplicity of form meets function.

... current Keirin frames are so cold with all their cut-and-plug dropouts/parts.

... i just may pull the trigger on this one ... shimano 10 pitch here we go down the rabbit hole (again !!)

... anyway some of these older beauties are more "keeper of the flame" than anyting you'll see at nahbs.

... just my two cents.
