Greetings:
I have read the posts concerning the KoF designation....and I wonder? Has it become too narrow? I have seen plenty of lugged steel frames from the 70's on that were built by something less than artisans. To me the Flame seems to be the art and pride that you have in your craft and whether those qualities translate into the finshed product. This would exclude all mass-produced bikes--but might include several non-lugged steel builders such as Indy Fab, Waterford..... But then again, I may be FoS
