Whew - yeah, maybe 100 or so were made. They are even more rare than the Rigid flat frames which probably had about 200 or so made total. Good frame, but I think current designs are a bit better overall.

The St. Martin - Darwin may be my personal favorite right now.

Near as I can tell, London Bikes went under. Sad, too...they made some really nice stuff. The South Bank frame was a cool design but WAY expensive and you had to wait like 2 months for 'em.

Trivia: Odyssey bought the design for its 'London Mod' dual cable stops from London Bikes. Hence the name.

The Nyquist Pro is actually a pretty sh1tty flatland bike; the headtube is too mellow, the bars have too much sweep, the forks have too much rake, the top tube is too long, and it doesn't have a freecoaster.

Other than that, it's all good. I hear the stock grips are ok.
