[QUOTE="Swede, post: 576842, member: 5139"] Yeah, that probably didn't help the brand. They made really nice frames (Japan), good components, and Grant was/is a cyclist, so I figure built right. I'm pretty sure some had Reynolds tubing. The prices have gone up from my last purchase of an RT for $50. My favorite a 300 ("low" end) came from a yard sale for $25. It's now got Nitto bars, Shimano brake levers recommended by Sheldon Brown (RIP), Suntour bar end shifters, and good tires. I use a rear rack with the rat trap type hold down to haul stuff. It's fun to build one up, but gets costly if not done carefully. [/QUOTE]
