Nice story.
Yesterday I got a friendly email from the person who built the frame of one of my finished projects.
He wrote that he was surprised to see his frame on the internet (my blog, velospace), but actually with his brothers name connected to it.
Well, to be honest, I just knew the family name, not the first name. But every time I mentioned the "brand" name of the small obscure company of the private frame builder, people mentioned the name of the brother. The brother was actually a racer, the man who wrote to me was a welder, who decided to make bike frames.
So, the story has been corrected now.
As a nice detail, he still knows a lot about my frame (he made just small quantities and on special order only) and had some pictures when brazing/soldering it. Nice workshop and jig or what???
Nice to complete my story about this "RECO" bike. And nice to know that some people ctually look at your blog and bikes on Velospace (or even better: this forum).
