I ended up buying the complete bike from him when, as we talked frame sizing, he convinced me that I'd not find the components cheaper. Without an exception, Cannondale owners come over to look at the Klein and start comparing wheel stay length and tube diameter and weld finishes and paint finish and weight and color. Gary Klein invented the welded aluminum frame, argued its merits, and developed the manufacturing methods and still produces the standard against which the others are measured. Ed Weiss . w .
