Follis Tandem
Interested in chatting with owners of the Follis Tandem. I bought mine back in 1978 in North Carolina.
It is fitted with Phil Wood BB and Hubs, TA crankset and Campagnolo Rally Derailleur. My wife and I have a blast riding it. Just wanted to make contact with owners and track down some history.

Owned/bought a new Follis back in 1975 . . . a real 10-speed! Sold it less than 2 years later. Paid around $235 and sold it for same price. Phils, TA and Campi are definitely an upgrade on what we bought in '75.
Recall we had a Nervar crankset, Mafacs + an Atom drum. Bike ate a lot of spokes 'til we got rid of the drum. Also rear hub got chewed up and had to be replaced.
Currently riding a full carbon fiber 2-seater. Nice!
