On this page: Euro-Asia Bare Knuckle 54cm frameset

Euro-Asia Imports is a well-established, highly-repected importer specializing in high-end bicycle product. The firm is located in Glendale, California.


Euro-Asia Imports Bare Knuckle 54cm Frameset. New, $700.00/frame and fork.

Color: Kawasaki Bright Green

The frameset has been built up, but never ridden.

Horizontal top tube.  No nonsense track geometry--short wheelbase, steep angles, high bottom bracket and 120mm rear spacing with big cro-mo tubes. This frame is stiff and quick handling. Drilled to accept calipers for road training, but no allowance made for fenders, racks, fat tires, or cantilevers.

  • 27.2 seatpost.
  • 1.125" threadless steerer.
  • English threaded bottom bracket shell.
  • Approximate b/b height: 11.25".
  • Dedacciai COM 12.5 oversize double-butted Cro-Moly tubing.
  • Frame construction: Tig-welded main triangle, lugged fork crown (straight blades). Columbus rear track dropouts brazed to chainstays and seatstays.
  • Drilled for front and rear brake (contemporary standard "short-reach" type).
  • Dropout spacing: 100 mm front; 120 mm rear.
  • Frame decals: None
  • Hand made in Venice, Italy.

Here's the no-nonsense frame and fork.

For fun, here's something from the past. In the 1930s the Swiss firm Phoebus produced the Mutaped 3-speed gear that was fitted into a specially made bottom bracket shell.

Here's an ad for the system.

The special bottom bracket shell needed to house the gear-changing system.

And here is the system installed.
