Guenther Krautschneid and Noell have been making frames since on timeline. I believe Krabo started making frames in `74, building his first Aero- frame in ´76 (!). Let´s not forget about Gudereit either. Gert Kalkuehler buildt the bikes for Guenther Schumacher, winning gold in Montreal ´74 on it, and also the german track-fours winning Olympic Gold in 1976. I believe Gregor Braun also was riding a Kalkuehler.

There are more ...
