A good chuckle is had by all... I was more bemused by the idea that there actually would be someone with the deviousness to waste this quality (so valued in this fair city) on duplicating a bike frame from the mid 1960s! If the Chinese and Turks don't duplicate something it's because there is too little market for it. And I might suggest a curly stay Hetchins Magn um Bonum ain't going to cut it when there are all those Louis Vitton bags to copy down to the last stitch. So relax.. we value this stuff and for all good reasons, but no one is plotting to make "phony" Hetchins or Masis. If they did, they'd never be convicted because 99.97 per cent of the jury p ool has never even heard of this stuff before.
