Awesome Customer's Bike: Cecil Behringer Pista

     This is a really cool frame and fork we sold a little while back to a loyal customer of the shop. It was built by Cecil Behringer, who was a famous American midwest builder / velodrome designer / ex racer who collaborated with the likes of Pino Morroni. Here is a link to the Classic Rendezvous page about him. Behringer It has unique features like the un-capped seat stays and the elaborate head lugs. The bottom bracket is stamped with the serial number, and his signature cast into the shell itself (see photo). Pretty rare machine from an American master at a time when there were not a lot of people building bikes like this in the USA. We look forward to the finished project!
