But isn't that a straight gauge frame? If so, the Seven version, Alaris, is
$1995. A better deal yet. Also, I don't think the Vamoots is custom at
that price but I may be wrong. Also, also, aren't you a Moots dealer? Hmm.Tim McTeague

Dear Trevor,
True, Dravidian words for animals do not use internal vowel
gradation to form plurals, which distinguishes them from our
few surviving Old English words for animals and anatomy,
such as man/men, woman/women (double), mouse/mice,
goose/geese, tooth/teeth, and foot/feet.This internal vowel gradation should not be confused with
such pluralizations as knife/knives, life/lives, or
wife/wives, which involve voicing of consonants.Nor should it be confused with the even rarer ox/oxen,
child/children pluralizations, which involve an otherwise
lost suffix and an excrescent -r.Pedantically,

I know a mongoose is Indian, and the word is English, with reference to a
dictionary of 2000 vintage the plural is mongooses. Just spotted "," after
True, I see you are agreeing. 'Ave thou nowt better t'do?

Moots are good enough welders to use thin walled ti and not burn it. Double
butting for ti is mostly marketing and to prevent welders from killing it.Custom Moots, add $350.
And yep, we sell lots of Moots, the only ti we sell.

You're thinking of Mark Hickey.
Peter has political opinions but he is generally more restrained about
expressing them here than Mr. Hickey.And he has little to do with Habanero.

I know who Peter and Mark are: Peter was recommending Moots, and I
added that a possible candidate for good Ti was Habanero. However, I
questioned the quality since Mark had spent so much time involved in
politics. I know that Peter has political views too.Andres

don't need a lot of sleep. It might be different if I was actually
the guy welding the frames - but I wouldn't be crazy enough to ride a
frame I welded.Mark Hickey
