Tim Isaac went to work for Alenax in 1982. He used to build custom frames for my shop prior to that time. He stayed at Alenax about a year, then had the opportunity to head Trek's growing bike building. I remember looking at the Alenax machines at the Long Beach show in 1982 and shaking my head. It might be fun to have to play with but not for a lot of money.
