I wonder who taught Paul how to frame build?
Didn't Derek Bailey, originally of "Roberts" cycles play a part in this...? When Rocky Mountain Or Sherpa manufacturing as it was first called started...?
I think Jacob Heilbron had Chas Roberts Fabricate some mountain bike frames with sloping top tubes and had them sent over as well prior to taking that first step into unknown MTB territory for themselves. (I think Ritchey was the example sent to Roberts too).
I understand that Paul and Derek didn't hit it off at all though, and by 86 Paul had moved on.
