Subject: [CR]Asking for information from Bruce and other builders

Think about it, these guys make 0 money when you buy a used bike no matter what.You could say it would be good PR to give those kinds of answers but after many years of frame building its probably buried away some where.
           I called Eisentraut about a bike I have and he spent 30 minutes talking about all sorts of stuff but wanted $125 hr to research the bike. He also said he received many calls on the same bikes as only a few bikes went hand to hand and they were always the same ones he was called about.
           He said a few general things about the person the bike was built for (Mike Schwering) but couldn't give specifics as to tubes used.
            Remember for us its a hobby (most of us anyway) for them its a living .When you are at work ,how much are you willing to do for free?
