Chainstay mounting of the rear brake allowed the brake cable to be almost totally hidden, only showing a bit behind the head tube and in front of the BB shell. Aero! In those days, I always had a new bike to ride. If some customer showed a fancy for the bike I was riding, I would just sell it to them. I have no idea where it went. I made a few replica versions of it, even with the orange color. But they weren't as trick as this bike. Jim Merz
