Dr Alex Moulton RIP, 1920-2012

[Brian Smith]

A confident and successful innovator has passed from our physical presence. (http://www.bikebiz.com//news/read/dr-alex-moulton-rip-1920-2012/014056)
Dr. Alexander Moulton was the progenitor of many forward thinking ideas, one most notable among our crowd here, the low rolling-resistance small-wheeled bicycle, with and without road-going suspension. (http://www.moultonbicycles.co.uk/)

Condolences to any relation who may happen to be or appear among us.

That's a shame. 92 is a pretty long ride, though. RIP.

RIP. He was a genius, a true innovator. I hope to be the owner of a Moulton "space frame" someday.

I love his designs. I always get a chuckle when I see the picutre of a race of his small frame/wheel bikes.

Bummer. Great man.
