Hi, Harvey and all,

Speaking of the Lambert cast aluminum fork, I have a story.

I am the one stupid guy who bought a Lambert frame from ebay a couple months ago.

This was the one seller thought it worth over 400.00 first, and relisted for nothing after he did not get any bid, I took it for a little over 40.00 but cost me additional 45.00 get shipped.

Anyway, the fork is just as heavy as regular steel one. It looks and feels as strong as steel one. Did it really fail to hurt many riders?

I like its looks and I sure would like to give A credit for trying something innovative in bicycle frame making history. Remember H-sight is 02/20.

KEN TODA, Got another project of restoration with Lambert, in North Carolina.
