Photo comparison of Klein frame details 1990 - 1997

That was fun!

Can you now please do the same for a given year (say, '93) and identify all the differences between the models?!

Some beautiful bikes there.

I guess you must be up there with Dreschler, Kai, Shamus and Carsten now then...!

Well done ... interesting stuff. I have two Quantums built two months apart so was interesting comparing my two ...

A great thread, Jeff.

Stuff like this is what makes Retrobike such a nice site:
Members sharing great info, catalog scans, "help" threads, organizing actual outdoor rides (! :shock.

Each one of your bikes look as though they've never seen dirt. Either that or you fully dismantle each and every fastener after each ride and hit the thing with the Q-tip and soft toothbrush.

Maybe these are just your wallhangers and you have other bikes you ride?
