Cool, thanks for that link. There are also some interesting pictures (not framebuilding related) on the gent's homepage. Interesting to see Japanese touring. I particularly like the manner of dress adopted by several of the riders (old style knickers, high stockings...).

I have another link that shows the frame workshop at C.S. Hirose. This web page appears to have been generated by a Hirose owner. It's a fascinating section for me, and I'm sure that the framebuilders on this list can make observations with they're own trained eyes...
