Subject: [CR]Concerning Swallows & Condors

Hi all, In view of the recent Swallow thread, I thought I would mention a possible source. A few weeks ago I was googling around the internet & came across the Yellow Jersey bike shop in Madison, Wis. Their website listed Swallows, so I gave them a call & they sent me a NOS swallow for IMO a reasonable $190. Don't know what their inventory is now, but they were nice folks & seemed familiar with "vintage stuff"
    Now a question- What do you all think, or know about Condor frames? They don't seem to pop up on my radar much, & I've always kinda wanted to get my hands on one since back in the 70's when I had a maintainance type book with a "hippie" wrench posing with one on the cover. Are they decent frames, or just pretty. Have a good one. Greg Brooks, Ridgetop,TN
