Does the frame I built on his course count?
He also built some frames for the Flying Scot brand in Glasgow and also one of the 'house brands' when he was still in Newcastle, M.Steel (the shop is still there but it no longer builds frames). I think he might have also built frames for the Frontiera brand which was based in Carlisle. He also built a frame for Rapha for one their publicity stunts.
Dave would say that he actually didn't build many of the frames when he was in Newcastle but one of his team did. He would concentrate on the specials, racing frames, tandems etc.
Ps: Dave's opinion of the Paris Galibier frame was it was shit but if that's what the customer wanted, he would build it.
Pps: Dave has opinions on most things to do with cycling :-)
