"The Carlini Heritage: The Carlini name took hold in 1969 in Detroit when Tony had a small shop and worked his ass off to build a wild name in the industry. The crazed psychedelic Italian from the tough motor city streets made a name for himself quick. He became a Hamster, moved to Laguna Beach, California, designed the Carlini Torque Arm, tank/paint savers and dealt in exotic cars. A work-alcoholic he pushed his son, T.J., to keep up from the moment he was able to push a broom. "

"The latest bike by Fred Krugger, built as a promotion for the new "Racer" frame, will be introduced at the European Championships in Mainz next weekend. Fred can make this frame for any engine/gearbox combination and for fat or narrow rear tires. In this case the rear wheel is an 18" with a 240 Metzeler tire."
