Moon??

[Dr. Doofus]

Anyone had experience with Richard Moon? Your Doof is tempted to stray from his solemn Della Santa vow...

Word on the street is that he does very nice work.

Indeed ... Except a lengthy wait however! I still want to see BigMac's RM.

BTW, Richard is also a fit rider, as his Terrible Two time shows!

Dr, get them both. The Moon for the beauty , Della Santa for the history.... :)

Well, here are my two cents:

Beauty and/or History: Mercian and/or Eisentraut!

As shown on his website, he does build very nice frames. Last time I emailed him, he was quick to reply and stated that current wait time was around 3 years. If you are seriously interested, send him an email.

I e-mailed him several times never heard back
is he still building frames

The "Godfather of American Framebuilders", check the thin lugs:

Just looked at this bike. What exactly is appealing to you about it? Looks backwards to me.

walrus asks:

<What exactly is appealing to you about it? Looks backwards to me.>

Actually, that question was raised on another forum. If you look at the bike, its leaning against the wall making the front end look lower than the rear.

Check out the bike in this shot:

However, what I like about this bike is the lugs, nice and thin:

Personally, a nice "Ferrari" Red with cream or white headtube would look better....
