Jim - right you are - that was Match bicycles, Curt Goodrich and Martin Tweedy were the resident torches. I was fortunate to attend a very nice open house hosted by Tim with live brazing demos from Curt and Martin, showcasing all the machines that Tim had designed and had made in China.

It is a real shame Match did not continue because it was a really impressive operation. I have a number of good pictures that I took that day, after riding 35 miles out to Woodinville on the Burke - Gilman trail. Maybe I will dig them out and scan them.
