Just so folks know even I think this is silly. I know folks that buy
cars and computers new today and just stare at them as Objects d'Art,
so Curt's customers behavior isn't that strange in the world of
collecting. If you owned one of Curt's first 10 frames built I could
see a good argument for preservation. A new bike from a builder that
has a long career ahead of them should be ridden. Of course
everybody thought Mario would be building much longer than he did.
