I cannot comment specifically on this bike. The only HH I have ever seen was owned by a cyclist downsizing his group due to a growing family = twins. I bought an '86 DeRosa. And almost a 70's Bianchi. I asked about 'the silver one in the dark corner' and he replied, "the titanium Havnoonian stays with me to the end." His bikes tended toward racy fast ones. Maybe he was an east coast guy. Philly?

Harry is still around and doing reasonably well. I have had a few e-mail conversations with him, and he is hoping to retire to teaching frame building. He has an e-bay store and sells a few items out of his extensive stash. Smiles, MH

Too bad there aren't more and better pics. I wonder if he'd sell just the frame?
