Alright then, I’ll play!
Just so happens that both of my bikes fall into the “E” category. Though I was kinda hoping that this specific thread would’ve come up a bit later as neither frame is an actual built bike at this present time.
Eisentraut needs no formal introduction. Mine is a ‘76 Limited Touring purchased as a frame and fork. Pictured is 55cm x 54cm frame in mock assembly as it sits right now.

Very nice. As you probably know, since that is a touring Limited, it is possible that Bruce Gordon built it. There may be a designation in the serial number that would tell you, but I am not at all sure about that and would not know how to translate the designation unless it said "Bruce Gordon built this." Maybe someone else knows. In any event, very nice frame, and it is shaping up to be a very nice bike.

I guess I can play here now too:
I don't know much about this one as I just picked it up. Custom Evans bike picked up from a former RAAM multiwinner. Columbus EL OS tubing. I'm sorting it out still but should get a test ride in on it soon.
Has some battle scars but I want to preserve the beautiful paint job.
Should come in about 22.5 pounds built up as is now. But once I decide how to reconfigure it I'm betting it'll be under 21 lbs easy.
Love the lugs and headbadge. Built in the mid 90's but I really can't find anything on line about the builder.

Thought it was time to do this thread, and the bike justice since when I last posted to it, the bike wasn’t built yet. So here it is...

Great thread, very educational with superb eye candy. No eBikes?
