Frame I.D.???
Hello everyone,
I know very little about this frame, and was hoping someone here may be able to help me out. I recently purchased a garage full of older (mostly high quality) frames/components/wheels etc., and I would really like to find out what type of frame this is.
It has been completely repainted with chameleon paint, but I can still make out the serial number: 009199. There are also two letters imprinted about 1/2" from the serial number, reading either "KD" or "KB."
It also has a pressed in bottom bracket, which originally led me to believe it was a Klein. However, the guy that sold me the lot said he, "thought he remembered it being one of Fat City Cycles road frames, the Slim Chance." Apparently they also used the pressed in BB.
Any info is more than I have!! Thank you...(I can always take more/better pics if it would help)

Yeah, that pressed fit BB bearing with snap ring looks like the old Lambert set up to me. What size is the frame BB to top of seat post? I'd be interested in taking it off your hands if it's the right size.

It's a steel frame, 62cm...the fork is rather suspicious. The garage was full of vintage Campagnolo parts, D'Ace, a really sweet Mavic sweelset/hubset, and tons of killer mountain bikes/components
Thanks for the replies everyone.
