Tom Ritchey, legendary framebuilder, started building his first frames in 1972, making 2012 his 40th year of custom framebuilding. To celebrate this landmark Tom Ritchey is offering a small batch of his finely crafted, fillet brazed steel frames to the public for the first time in many years. Tom stops by to show us the first in the series, a Classic Road Frameset, size 60cm. It's being auctioned off right now on ebay.

If the bidding goes over $10,000 - Tom will build the winner their very own frameset, road, mountain, breakaway, or tandem. Whatever the winner wants.

Proceeds from this first 1 of 40 frameset will go towards the Team Rwanda
