Bruce Gordon?
This is not so much an appraisal question, but a fact finding mission. I've had this for a while but can't find any info
on it. Was told by the previous owner that its a BG, but have not seen any photos of TIG welded frames by him.
There are no identifying marks other than the chicken logo and an Ibis chainstay protector. Serial # doesn't match
up with his lugged frames either. Any thoughts?

It is recent , the chicken has its reference to his current shop location , in Petaluma California.
nothing wrong with TIG welded joints..
He, (also around 70) is ready to retire , want to buy his business?

I guess my next question would be about value. Not being one of his recognizable
lugged frames and no downtube decals, I'm estimating $150? Seem reasonable?
