I used to own a Gayas frame.
They are frame builders who started making custom bikes from around the 70's in Korea and well, based on the one frame that i owned, are pretty snappy and nice.
I was told the same thing about the 88 Olympics track team.
I think they are mostly Tange double butted.
Ended up selling the one i owned because it was slightly too small and i didnt like having to raise the seatpost and stem too much,so I was trying to find more of these, and Im telling you they are rare as f*** these days, even in Korea (im from Korea).
They have quite a cult status among Korean cyclists. (imagine them being like the old school Mercian equivalent to cyclists here?)
anyways. nice to see these in London so i had to leave some sort of comment.
(I also bought stuff from and sold stuff to Chegas before and he is a cool dude. Seems the bike was built using new parts for an exhibition so it would be a pain for him if he had to drop the price further. We all know how much things cost when bought new from shops)
