Steel Is Real!

Written By Steve McGuire

In other frame building news.....

This is a nearly 100 year old, Iver Johnson, “racer”/track bicycle frame.

I really needed this frame so I could take precise measurements, so as to make a replica of the frame Major Taylor rode to win the world championship in 1900 (and it weighs as much as a 1979 ford pickup).

Steel is real! But I'm going to make a replica stem and seat post from titanium.
