Colin Laing bicycles

Hello,

Back around the early 1980’s, I had ordered a custom frame from Colin Laing bicycles. The frame had numerous construction issues, and was returned twice. One of the issues that I can recall was that Colin did not indent the right side chainstay where the chainrings would be, which would not allow the crankset to be attached to the bottom bracket. Very serious. The frame of course was returned permanently. Colin then revealed to me that he had been hit by a car, causing a great deal of damage to himself. This may have contributed to the poor workmanship on this frame.
