A friend bought it on ebay for his girlfriend who decided it wasn't for her (because of the color!) and sold it to me, so I know little about it. Consensus is that it was contracted out to Clark Kent, now out of business. Clark Kent's expertise is said to have been more in steel than in titanium, but this frame seems to be well made. I assume the fork is original, but I don't really know. I also assume that since it was contracted out, it may comply with few or no standards of the Lemond company.
