crumpton corsa team, gaulzetti corsa, spooky skeletor

it really is the best of times if you want a stock racing frame from a small, american bike brand instead of the same old big name chinese crap bikes, some of which used to be big name american bikes from places like pennsylvania, wisconsin and california.  yeah, the crumptons are made in italy, and the gaulzetti and the spooky are made under contract by great small fabrication shops, but all three are straight up american-bred racing frames for the folks who don't want or need custom geometry or lugs and steel.  the spooky is a killer deal.  the gaulzetti comes in a shitload of sizes.  the crumpton looks for all the world like all the crumptons, and italy is not china.  if you like to ride, you gotta have something, and these three frames are the tits.  it's an embarrassment of riches for the standard-sized bike dweeb with liquid cash.  these three aren't mine, but pretty cool nonetheless...

now where is the ~ 2k-3k titanium frame and fork from an american shop in awesome stock sizes?  that would fit in great with these three gems.
