Lot's of great ideas springing up here. Apparently several previous posts were deleted and I'm not sure why, but I appreciate the conversation continuing. Thanks all.

You're thinking of Ian Hibell, who did unfortunately pass away recently. He had a couple bikes made with integrated (not removable) racks because he apparently had trouble with racks and rack bolts breaking. I've only ever seen his jerry-cans strapped to the bike, not in special holders, though. see below. I love the old school "folding tire."

is that a double Stronglight up front? I think the smallest chainring is 37t for that.
He must'v been a strong fellow. Looks like he's got a 32 in the back, though, which helps a bit. http://www.classiclightweights.co.uk...ents/str93.jpg |
that's the crankset I had on my Lippy that I rode from Ogden Utah to Boulder to see the 1980 Coors race. V.L, thanks for the info, I'm having fun reading about Ian, I had an Argos frame for awhile, but it wasn't like that!
I think I had something like a 39/49 with 6spd 14-30 Suntour ultra 6 spd freewheel. http://www.bikebrothers.co.uk/ih_argos_refinished.htm http://www.bikebrothers.co.uk/ih_grubb.htm 40/46 with 14-31 five spd freewheel. 34.8" low gear |
