There's this one frameset that I've known of for the past 3-4 years. I've been calling the guy who owns it every year, precisely every 6 months, in June and December, only to hear 'nah, try again next time'. Last week, for a change, he said 'yeah, come over' and I almost pissed my pants. I've always thought of this one as the symbolic end to my collection, a holy grail even, why not. However, I'm kinda happy that it took me so long to get it, cuz I managed to snatch some pretty cool crap on the way. The collection is somewhat complete.
Anyway, enough of the pretentious bullshit, here it is.
One of the first road Rychtarski aero framesets. This one takes a regular headset, has some nice fixed brake mounts, a crimped seat tube and can run only one derailleur which results in a pretty quirky shifter boss. Tubes were shaped by Lech himself.
And this purdy thang
I used to own the road version of this one that I bought with track forks - sold the entire set not knowing that I might actually need it in the future... The above one came with a road fork, oh the irony.
Also this. But I don't even care at this point.
