Welcome to the new LE-10 page!
To commemorate the new decade I thought it would be nice to offer
a small number of stock sized frames in a Limited Edition format.
The idea is to build a total of thirty frames in eight
stock geometries, with a unique theme that will not be reproduced
in future production.
The attention to design, materials selection, and workmanship
is top notch, but the price is very reasonable.

The frame has its own distinctive hand shaped
lugs with clean elegant lines. The tubing is a finely tuned size
specific selection from the high end of the Dedacciai and Columbus
ranges. Katryn and I have also created a completely new set of
graphics for this one-time offering. The look is crisp and fresh,
yet historically relevant.
The ride quality is what I would call "classic road racing".
As you throw your leg over and begin to roll down the road it
feels familiar and natural. A combination of smooth and supple,
and taut and snappy. This is an all day bike that sticks to the
road in hard climbs and sprints and descends like a demon. |

As you can see from the raw frame detail shots,
the fit and finish quality is second to none. Each frame and
fork is made one at a time by my hands in our shop.
The finest frames deserve the best finish so Joe Bell is providing
all the LE-10 paint work. Two timeless paint choices are available
as shown: black frame and fork with white panels, or white with
black panels.
Are you ready to discover the splendor of lugged steel? Or, perhaps
rekindle an old steel love affair? If so, the LE-10 might be
the perfect fit. Thank you for your time and please let us know
if you have any questions.
