Big (67cm and up) Klein road bikes

[mtnbke]

I came across some old Klein catalogs showing geometry and it turns out some early Klein road bikes came in some rather large sizes (67cm and bigger).

I'm not at all afraid of the pressed in BB, as I think it actually makes for a better BB than the standard square taper threaded (and lighter). They last forever and Phil Wood can help with even missing spindles.

So my question is, has anyone actually ever SEEN a Klein that was bigger than just a 66cm?

How many of these were made? I never see early Klein road bikes, let alone really large ones.

I'm definitely interested in getting my hands on one (68, 69, 70cm) if they really existed.

I see a fair number of Klein bikes around Seattle (they were made in Chehalis before Trek bought them). Maybe try a "wanted" ad on Seattle Craigslist.

Yes, one of my old team mates had one. Nice bikes. When the two of us were on the front, nobody was getting by. :D
