Dear all. It would seem that my humerous contributions to this august Forum have been absorbed and the forum has reverted back to its right and proper status as a serious platform for imformed discussion and opinion. If my previous comments about the, dare I mention the name,Ddd erdd, well you know who I mean. one of my friends, or rather my friend, suggested that I was rather harsh, so I appologise for any upset caused over my biggoted remarks and hope that no volentary euthanasia resulted. To change the subject entierly and to make a more somber subject the object of discussion,it has come to my attention that many of the questions raised in this and other Forums, are directed to the identification of bike frames. Some of these frames yare very atractive and have obviously been artistically and very well made, in a lot of cases, yet their sculptor is sadly, unknown. To this end, I have designed a frame name, the decals for which, I have commisioned to be made. These decals will give a possative identity to any hithereto unknown frame. Scripted in Old English Script[or American if you prefer] they will be identified by the simple, but very descriptive letters of FKW. These initials will give a definite identity to all blank fram me names and can form their own group. I can start this collective off with 3 of the make, and we can have meetings globe wide, with many new members envisaged weekly. I suggest that the decal should be universally adopted for all mystery frames, and a seperate forum startedI have commisioned a tee shirt with the legend, " I have a FKW" in various colours and script. The name will give authenticity to hithertoo unsure prospective Eroica entrants as now we can time date their FKW for the authorities. I have gone one further with the desigb of a head stock decal which depicts the emblem of crossed spanners with underneath an image of a prophelactic. The letters FKW would be on top of this emblem the message being very obvious to the less mechanically minded of us. Tee shirts with this seperate design are also available. P;ease let me know if you are interested in either an FKW decal[s] or tee shirts. Im glad to inject a serios note to proceedings.Looking forward to hearing from you, or being denied entry to the forum.... Barrie Carter, FKW founder member, Roun dham, UK

Itemnumber is 110462303939
Based on that a guy here in Copenhagen runs a frame just like that in the streets with a nice classic campagnolo gruppo with hi-lo flange rear trackhub.. I'd say it could be a little bit overpriced.
They are nice frames though.
