For those unfamiliar with TK, a brief early history:

1976 - begins 5-year apprenticeship with renowned frame-builder Bill Boston. A few months into it, he's fired for doing crappy work. Unphased, he moves to Allentown in Oct 1976 and starts building frames on his own.

1977-80 - his frames win 2 Professional World Championships, 2 amateur Silver Medals, and 20 National Championships
Pro Championship? It was Moser and some Dutch rider like Kuper or something like that? One of them rode an re-badged American made frame, or was it a track event other then road? N ow i am really curious.
