The UPS guy just dropped off my "Last KS Screamer frame". According to the seller (a very personable
fellow)it was a:
"DOUBLE RECUMBENT BICYCLE is new but has paint damage ie. chips. Built in Hayes Kansas by RANS and
labled the Screamer."
It was very roughly handled in the defunct LBS where it originated. In tossing it around both bottom
bracket shells got dented about .030. The paint is indeed dinged but that is no problem.
At the price ($485) I can live with the "cosmetics" but would like some hints from my fellow
obsessive-compulsives on how to correct the cruel and unsual treatment that this poor defenseless
piece of 4130 has suffered at the hands of fools.
I have taken out some pretty serious dents in shotgun bbls in my time and have tried to
unsuccesfully UNwarp a bottom bracket shell that I damaged by careless brazing technique. So I do
have a "frame of reference" so to speak.
Leave off the "WAR" stuff and get down to IMPORTANT thoughts!!!!!!!
Thanks, boys and girls..
