"Well, there it is, a Super with crimped tubing! (That is crimping along the top and down tubes, isn't it?) I always thought that only later Mexicos had it, but I was wrong."
re the super catalog pic hilly posted
" UPDATE: Not surprisingly, a couple of people wrote to say that to their eyes, this Super does not have crimped tubing, that it is simply the a dark reflection. I admit that I considered this, and went back and forth many times on my conclusion. In the end I decided it was not just a dark reflection. There is a dark reflection, but there is also a lighter stripe below which seems to be the result of the crimping. But it's a tough call and I can see how someone can come to the conclusion that none of the tubes are crimped."
