snipped: Does e-Richie's 30th Anniversary model have the cable guides on top of the shell? Evolution, devolution, or revolution? Tom Donahue ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Well, we'd have to hear from e-richie to know why the guides are "back on top" Richard (cleaner is usually better), Rose ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i put them on 'top' because that's what that frame's aesthetics begged for. in other words, i'm reinventing the braze-ons' placement on the top of the bb shell, but only on bicycles built in the present that are meant to evoke a simpler time. figure that one out. e-RICHIE
