Have you ever seen a LandShark?

Landshark made high-end road bikes for Parkpre USA BITD. They were known for their fantastic attention for detail and stunning paint work.
 
Nice frame.
Please check this...
Don't know what to think. Same design, frame components...
Cheers,
Chus

^^^ interesting ^^^ Did Ritchey out-source any other fabrication? As I said above Parkpre used Landshark to make some frames.

Lots of manufacturers used the softail design. KHS, Ritchey, Dekerf and a few others. I believe the Ritcheys were Tig welded wheras mine is Fillet Brazed. The shock on mine is ok I just over greased it a bit. I will need a stiffer spring and maybe some fresh bushings but they are still available.
 
Ooh- Luvly! 8)
It's one of those bikes that makes you crash, just from looking down and admiring it, instead of at where you're going. :wink:

I hit a tree once because I looked down when my chain started skipping once. Anyway, made some changes to get her up and running for now, new chain and xt cassette, xt v-brake for the rear, different stem and bar, new tires. Rode it to work today and this bike is just plain fast. I can't wait to get some dirt under it.
 
Made some changes and dropped a few pounds. Much better.
