Don't know if you've seen it but forum member shogun700 has a Moda. There's a couple of pics about here and it was BOTM a couple years ago. His build thread is here http://forums.mtbr.com/vintage-retro-cl ... 11889.html

i trolled through that thread earlier this week. this white one is stunning!

That one is the Max OR version as evidenced by the shaped top tube and the oversize chainstays. It also appears to be filet brazed which is cool.

I'm from Claremont. Just rode Webb today. We should do a retro ride. Just talked to someone about the old rare Santanas non tandems yesterday. Beautiful bikes.

Nice photos with the red brick ruts. At least that's what we called them in 1991. Do you remember Roger at Buds back then?

By the 90s I was in San Francisco, but the retro ride idea is a good one, though I have sworn off of Webb
