This might have some valid bearing on the matter...About Us | Bob Jackson Cycles

I did not state it so baldly, but I was thinking about the relative size of each shop and how that might affect their "production".
I did not know these particular details, until now, but this makes obvious there are "production" frames, and then there are "production" frames.
There may be qualitative differences within a brand (or even a particular model) especially over time, for many reasons. Knowledge of which may become less (or sometimes more) generally well known.
Having read this little bit of historical context, I would want to know more about the 1992 Bob Jackson before I bought it.


*In what years was the Colnago Super considered to be less "super" than others? (No points for saying "all of them", that's just lazy.)
