Plenty of high end artisan bike builders today copying FCCs segmented fork designs as ‘the latest thing’. FCC and their associated creative artistry must be one of the most channeled in the contemporary hip cycling community.
The other side of my Jim Espey poster. Love all the details about how these awesome frames were made by yours truly amongst others. Its not all marketing baloney, people have no idea how much difference this makes to how a bike rides.
The splash ano Ringle hubs and stem alone sell for a significant premium. The whole package is a killer deal that just needs a repro BOI to finish it off.
The more funky the better 😱
This one is from a bike for sale now on the bay. Not mine btw. Also interesting to get a snapshot of the FCC talented artisans through the years, like those listed from 89 below.

Top is 94 Somerville made flawless perfection in large and the lower a 97 in m/l which is a softer but also amazing ride with the Morati Ti forks. I only found a tiny handful of Somerville made Ti frames in L, so good luck in the hunt and they are 100% as good as it gets imo. Mine are keepers...
