1990 Ritchey P-series prototype, I'm not sure I'd buy a new one, expensive frames.
It was the best used frame in my size I could find for the cash I had.

Wierd bike, really fun to build\ ride.

Mine has a 140 mm spaced rear dropouts, solid fork w\ oversized front tire.
And a lot fewer gears. And it's ugly.
