Hello there,

A friend of mine just showed me a picture of a frame and for he was interesting in buying. It is a Jolidon Tig Welded Columbus Thron Frame. I don't really know anything about the company or the quality of build the company has but does anyone know anything about these bikes etc.? Here's a pic:

I don't recall ever seeing or reading about the brand. It strikes me as a brand that's not marketed in the states, Canada ? .. not sure, they've bikes im still learning of. Thron is a tubing from the mid-90s, an enthusiast's bike type of tubing. It's a good tubing just not the priciest. It replaced Chromor which had been used it Track Bikes as well as sturdy, light enough road bikes. Right now I just saw that Track Bike and others use Thron.
