This page must have set a record for the number of bikes over 62cm.. I wonder if more larger frames are made by American manufacturers than any other country, besides the Dutch of course because we all know how tall they can get.
The green Kelly of redxj's is my favorite. One of those bikes that can do everything.

Love Shimano Sante' stuff... So elegant and classy. I think it fell somewhere in the line around Ultegra. Maybe between Dura-Ace and Ultegra? Definitely nicer than 105 of the time.
