These bikes on photo were actually built in the seventies. I think but am not quite sure that the use of these typical colourful metalflake paintjobs became big when people started building these longbikes and not so much so when they built the Frisco style that preceded this one. So we are reviving things but still mix stuff up (nothing wrong with that though, just saying). Correct me if I am wrong, that is what this blog is for too.
