Abstract:
This is a story about a group of young and talented bicycle frame builders. Idealists they were, this group that wanted to form a democratically-controlled and
employee-owned company where every staff member could contribute to and enjoy the rewards of producing a finely-crafted product.
The moral of our story is a bit of wisdom paraphrased from the IF web site: "If shot peening is good enough for improving connecting rods and valve springs for racing car
and motorcycle engines, turbine blades for jet engines, highly stressed landing gear parts for fighter planes and aerospace parts for NASA, it's good enough for the
fabrication of welded titanium bike frames."
