Smashing story.
My favourite bit is
"Kono later accused Reynolds of stealing a section of his tubing that evening and using it as the basis for his own line of strong leightweight tubing. He may have a point. Reynolds 531 tubing came out the very next year".
Amazing how some of these legendary tubing designs come about, I heard that columbus SLX was designed by Fred Columbus who had a plumbers merchant on the Balls Pond Road.
