For sheer madness it's hard to touch the Cinelli Lasers tho

Some nice variations on the Laser:

Some more examples of the DDR Textima bikes. These are from 1980/82. Years before anyone in the west was producing competent super lo pros. I had one pass through my hands 20 years ago, Campagnolo Super Record with hand made brakes/bars, stem, front derailleur and pedals. There wasn't a cable in sight, everything routed through the frame. The rear brake wire came out bare from through and behind the seat post!
