Was the Bottechia matte black with white? I was in the bike business for
20 plus years and sold Bottechia bikes for a while. Gold mavic Oro 10 rims? Tubulars? . . . Very cool bike!Rick
What does a Knight smoother do that a $15 Borg plane won't?

Steve,
Looks like a sweet bike. I raced in highschool, (quite some time ago!) Oh, yeah ... you suck! I think you came out ahead on that deal. .. Rich:
It's like the difference between a Unisaw, and a benchtop table saw -- night and day.
Regards, JT
You know what? That's an excellent point!
Renata
Holy smokes!! Man, what a bike. You definitely do suck, huh?!
Pretty soon you'll be trading boats and cars for a few planes and the rest of us mortals will never be able to have a Knight plane again ;)
Mike
Mike, I'll assume you are sincere in your comment....not just trolling. Do you use planes? Have you used more than one type of plane...a #5, or a shoulder, bullnose, chisel, maybe a #7, or an manly #8 Stanley, or any of a hundred others? If all you've done is push a $15 Borg, please stop what you're doing and enroll in a basic woodworking class where you can do some of the above. Then scrape up enough to buy a Steve Knight coffin smoother....if you are contrite he may sell you one ;>). After all the above is acomplished you will no longer dwell in the realm of plane ignorance or is that plain ignorance??
Cheers,
Frank
won't?

Dang Steve, a Columbus SL classic Italian bike w/ what looks like Campy components. You made out like a thief --- are you sure this guy didn't steal that bike?!? (of course, I jest as classic road bikes can be bought very inexpensively off eBay and sometimes in Velo-News). Still, you did great. Hope you have many safe & fun miles ridin' it. ;-p

Finally... I have a couple of Steve's early versions.
If they weren't fantastic tools, I'd be jeealous of the late adopters who are getting the pretty AND fantastic ones!

Two Piper Aztecs and a Beech for a bicycle? Does not sound like a bargain to me. Ed
no it's a mix. the guy I traded with was a bicycle messenger. so parts are campy and shimano and brands I don't know about (G)
about right on that for sure (G)
I tell you the trading is sure fun. it really helps in my budget too. what there is of a budget anyway (G)
Perhaps if you look at Mike's post more closely, you will see the parallel he is drawing. Just as the Knight smoother is a much more proficient tool, the expensive bike is a much more proficient mode of transport.
Cheers, Eric
