you are not talkin' about these, are you? It's not a star, though.

not dropouts that i'm aware of, but guerciotti used the star on fork crowns and bottom bracket cutouts, and generally in logos

He had been building some of Chris' bikes for V-O out of Brooklyn, no?

Did he close doors? Building elsewhere, or did he move on?

Proletariat is not out of business, but they have put a hold on orders. I'm not sure what that means for their future. FWIW, I really love the Proletariat S3 road bike I have.

Doesn't Della Santa do the star thing as well? Old Slim Chance bikes too (neither at the dropouts though).
