’96 Deluxe

Owner: Peter Ford

From: Massachusetts, USA

Paint: Orange with gold prizmatique and lime panels

Comments: If my understanding is right, the frame started off as one of the original cow race bikes – when they were painted like Holstein cows. Then it was repainted the next team color (still original paint). The front shock was replaced a couple years ago and painted to match by the original painter – Hot Tubes. ‘Liitle’ brother, one of the early grassroots racers, gave me the frame. He’s now moved on to a Ti Deluxe.
