As she has not been entered into special month before (I think), what would be more beautiful example of 90's Made in the USA frame than the 2.8 Series painted with triple fade. Even the fly loves it.

@PhillB Surely your American built American is perfect for this month? x Don’t tell me they made them in Taiwan???

As it's a USA special - and the Serotta Pro-flex isn't ready yet, I'd like to enter my 1990 Klein Attitude Dolomite/ Team USA.
I've checked back and it's only been entered in the July 2021 BOTM.

boy"O"boy's 1990 Klein Attitude Dolomite/ Team USA/ Mavic build

Back to 1990...this bike to me was the stuff of dreams. I blame that picture in Richards Ultimate bicycle book....Aesthetically perfect, instantly recognised, you couldn't mistake the 'Dolomite' or 'Team USA' colourway for anything else. If you could afford to build one of these with a dream...
