Da uno scambio di e-mail con un mio collega ad Austin (che in ottobre di solito quando Lance torna a casa si fa la pedalata insieme ... ) vi sottopongo la storia di questo artigiano americano, presso cui continua ad ordinare il suo muletto:
"Richard Sachs (http://www.richardsachs.com/), now in his 35th year of building steel frames, did his
apprentice in Europe. Richard has always supplied his bikes with Campy from the beginning. He is now considered America's penultimate builder and one of the few that even does lugged steel frames anymore.
A person placing a new order today with Richard will have to wait 3 years
before they take delivery on the bike. Back in the 80's, Richard was the
ONLY American frame builder to be invited to Vicenza to partake in the 50th Anniversary celebration of Campy. He... had a formal dinner in the villa with Tullio Campagnolo himself. ... collects vintage Campy parts (in the box, never used) from the 40's-70's. "
e poi c'e'
http://www.campyonly.com/
a proposito di chi come me poi non sceglie col cuore e monta shimano ...
Li' per qualcuno e' una fede: telaio in acciaio di Richards e Campy.
Conoscete artigiani o piccole ditte in Italia di questo genere ?
