It's an interesting story. They started by importing their frames from an old Russian rocket factory. Hence Paketa, which supposedly means "rocket" in Russian. Zatopek's Litech frame is probably from the same factory.

All tubes are now being extruded in Denver and the bikes are designed and built locally. I know one of their previous owners pretty well - solid, salt of the earth human being. I'm sold on their bikes.

It's the Time RXR that's taunting me.
