It seems today.... people forgot what the word craftsmanship means. Keep in mind, this , for the most part,  was deigned for kids! What can you buy today that's made in the USA and has this level of craftsmanship??????????

A perfect example of "They don't make'em like that anymore".

Those welds are out of control! I agree with what everyone said above, the level of craftsmanship is top notch.

I haven't, but I'm sure they're very nice. When I look at and/or show off my 1980 Race frame, everybody says the same thing, "WOW!". When you compare what had came before, and then after, it's really hard to deny the craftsmanship and care that went into building something as simple as a bike frame. It's art!

A work of art for sure. Had one back in the day. Like a fool I sold it. Tearing my hair out trying to find another like it. Looking forward to the day I can bring one home.cool
