David Feldman asked: Which Laker had the 72cm Medici? Not to stereotype basketball players or anything..........

Actually he wasn't that tall, maybe 6'8" or so, but he had very long legs. I remember the top tube as being only about 58-59cm. Coolest part about it was the internal triangle reinforcement with lateral tubes to the seat stays. Very reminiscent of a Santana Marathon tandem frame.

The funniest thing was that he drove a Honda CRX, a tiny car that he literally folded himself into...
