Bikes: '96 Litespeed Catalyst, '05 Litespeed Firenze, '06 Litespeed Tuscany, '20 Surly Midnight Special, All are 3x10. It is hilly around here!

Another good maker was Bridgestone and their frames from the early to mid-80's should be available at reasonable cost since they predate the "cult status" RB-series. I'd look for 500 or above series frames as the 400's were butted Cr-Mo main triangles but had Hi-Ten stays and forks.
