Top 5 frames you would do everything to own

Are they still going then? Amazing lugwork on these.

Errr ... no. :) They closed down decades ago. That's why they're so rare and expensive. The building was knocked down a long time ago, as well.

i always loved those reminton lugs

^^ Ah. I read your post wrongly. Thought the brand might have been resurrected.

nice to see a wide and varied selection of bikes on your wish list

You are right of course, I did a revision...

added some pictures

thanks, the fes was ungoogleable.
mean machine

no one of the original riders is uploading pictures of their fes and tagging the identification to it. the bumber after the "b" stand for the producing year, the next one is for the size (older models like mine had 1, 2 and 3, the newer ones have also 4 with a longer top tube). the newest models i know are from 2011 (b11-x)

Leader Kagero.

Really?

Yeah, nothing special. Clean, light and attractive.

In no particular order:

Santa Cruz nomad crabon

Cervelo R5

Mercian Vincitore

Bilenky Chuckwagon

And something like this from sizemore

Berk custom frame.

Litespeed Ghisallo (one of the featherweight ones)

Takhion pursuit because they're mental looking.

This Samson because NJS rats are hot.

And lastly I'd love to build my own frame. I think it would be immensely satisfying riding something that you crafted with your own hands.

GT Edge
Preferably the 853 version:

I knocked a NOS one back on ebay.com because the seller's price was well ambitious. On the other hand, it was fillet brazed and the exact right colour - royal blue with yellow GT decals. It didn't have original forks and I would have fitted Wound Ups fo' sho'.
I regret selling my own Edge Ti almost daily. Here it is when life was a bit better - wearing full DA7700, a Dura Ace seatpost, a Chris King wheelset, and leaning next to my Lynskey ...

Anchor RNC7
For me, this is absolutely, positively the most desirable steel production frame available.
Ultra-rare in the UK, I was actually offered one of these by someone on Retrobike and I refused it because I thought it was 1cm too small - dickhead.

Pegoretti Big Leg Emma
As many a single gentleman will attest, an interest in pornography starts broadly and, over time, increases in specificity. Like photos of men dressed as sissies or people openly weeing at bus stops in front of bemused passers-by, I appreciate chainstay and dropout porn is not going to float everyone's boat -

• but the paint-jobs are to die for ...
  
  

Dekerf Prodigy
When I see Chris' wishbone stay and Tuning Fork it makes me feel sick with want. I exchanged a few mails with him last summer but the $$$ saw me off nicely. This bike is even in the exact right colour (but with the wrong fork):

Others: Cervelo Prodigy, Kona Kapu (Columbus Genius), a steel Land Shark.

rossin pursuit

that would be enough

^ Don't want to rain on your parade .. But that is a conversion, it started life as a Rossin Ghibli road frame http://www.ollierkkila.com/Site/?p=164

oh you did rain on my parade....now i am out of the game and happy with what i have.

This Samson because NJS rats are hot.

NJS rats are hot, yes, but crashed and then repaired NJS frames kind of worry me.

Good range there Gus

I have to admit I'd like a Bullett, or even something nicer (I dunno much about cargo).

I regret selling my own Edge Ti almost daily. Here it is when life was a bit better - wearing full DA7700, a Dura Ace seatpost, a Chris King wheelset, and leaning next to my Lynskey ...

Having to sell that, tough break. I presume you offloaded your surplus kidney first?

I'd like one of these..

Berk custom frame.

sorry but this is itching me, how does that work? you just send him your bb to saddle measurements and he does exactly that? what if you feel like adjusting the saddle? or when you change pedals?

The clue is in the name.
