Off topic but loosely related - I lived on the island of Alameda in the early '80s with my Peter Mooney which rode across the bridge right down the street from Eisentraut many times. '84, I crashed it and bent the fork. Took it to the shop and Ed Litton straightened it, then a year later, painted the replacement Peter built me and the frame to a burnt orange just a hair more orange than this bike. Metal flake also.

Ed never built me a bike. By the time I was in a place to justify another custom, I was living in Portland, Dave Levy of TiCycles had built me several stems (to get stock bikes to fit) and I'd ridden an early Merlin and knew instantly; that was the ride for me. Up here I never see his work, save the once in a while framebuilder trade shows and for a while, a velodrome racer from San Jose's Hellyer (SP) used to bring his Litton up for the Alpenrose Challenge.
