I offer to ride it in anger, with red skin suit and pot belly if you are not up to it
What was serial Number on left drop? Own identical one belongs Ekimov. Stamped RUS4. That seat stays is rarely see on Futura. First gen use them only. Every other have Relief stays instead of engraved. As I said mine is identical as ur. Looks like 56,57 you're, no? ThanksThere were a couple little dents in the frame which I brazed and made smooth. But there was a bigger problem with the dropouts. They had become crushed over time leaving big dents and grooves from the wheel nuts.
I decided I wanted to smooth this back, so I had to build up the brazing first and file back the excess again with the help of my friend Matthew Sowter of Saffron Frameworks.
