Alexi, funny! I was the last person to comment on your IF Sparkly Green MTB! Well,
aside from that MTB. I haven't seen a road bike in a long while. Should have said that. But you catch my drift. The frequency of seeing them on forums/bike media is waning.
As to this comment. Yeah, I believe Chapman is in the Providence area where I grew up... Isn't he the guy who builds vintage-looking bikes with moustache bars, shellacked cloth tape, etc, or am I thinking of someone else?
Is there a reason in particular that mid-century styling is more appealing than 70/80s Italian-inspired bike
pron?
