Small word to be sure, Mike Fraysse content..
So I buy a down tube cable stop on ebay. Bid, win, pay, get it. Bolt not the right one, so I go to send a message to square things up, only to see what I missed when I bid/paid et al.
Seller is Mike Fraysse, who I know since I was 14-15 from the Ridgefield Park Bike shop which I got all my gear from as a kid. Including the last one in the 70s, a chromed 531 lugged frame made in the frame shop by Cuevas [the son], so I was told back when. ;).
Had it until 1979 probably. My first real road bike build @ 16 yrs old. Cab you tell by the short rear brake cable/housing. ;)
So I called him and talked [listened] for quite while, LOL. Funny, last saw him late 90s out in Port Jervis area...
Funny also, was that the Cosmic Wheel that wound up in the same location was my go shop in the 90s with my cycling rebirth...
