looking for a steel frame that takes 1" threaded headset
Not brazed, but welded. Not too expensive ($450 more or less).
Thoughts?
-semi horizontal dropouts not required, prefer vertical but either works
-unicrown fork ok
-prefer a lugged fork crown

Pake is about the only act in town I can think of as well. Fuji Touring still uses quill type stem I think Windsor tourist I've been told is the same frame. There's a Mercier on that bikes direct site that looks like it's a quill stem bike as well, no canti's though...looks like long reach calipers. Course these aren't 'cross' bikes per say.
I'd watch ebay, personally I've had good luck.
