In the 1970s, before the "aero"
fad, the word was "light," and bicycles went under the drill
to remove every spare gram of weight. This classic 1976 Hetchins
"Keyhole" model is an excellent example, with the lightening
approach being applied to virtually every part. It's also an
excellent example of a classic lugged frame--check out the gold
plating! For more Hetchins bikes: www.hetchins.org
