I was thinking about Touring bikes and does anyone know what tubing was used in Singer and Herse's? Was it straight guage or butted? What guages, probably custom per size and use but most likely heavier than most racing bikes. Was the top tube beefy to handle the large rack loads reacted in the Handlebars when climbing out of the saddle which is not a usual load path for a lightly loaded racing bike frame? _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
