Well, when I mentioned Yamaguchi I was thinking of the one in Colorado. I seem to recall that he built some frames in Japan before coming over to the US but I may be mistaken. I mentioned him realizing that it's a matter of opinion whether you consider his bikes Japanese or US or whatever... (and I hope not to have opened a can of worms with that). Regardless, he's made some really interesting frames over the years.

> Several have heard of Yamaguchi... Would this be the same Yamaguchi who worked at Proteus in Maryland and later set up his own shop in Colorado? If so, did he build frames under his own name in Japan before coming to the U.S.? Or are there custom bicycle frame builders named Yamaguchi residing in both Japan and the U.S.?
