It's a classic Klein, what could be bad about it...?

I'm sure I've shagged uglier birds, but I was so pissed I can't be sure.

It's different... I'm a stealth man myself. It loses me with the "Attitude" decal.

If there was ever a bike brand that could be reborn as ultra high end, surely Klein fits the bill...

Who owns the name these days..?

Dunno for sure but didn't Trek own the company just before its demise?

your right about the marketability of a high end brand though. Klein would be perfect.

Just thinking about this whilst out on a cycle...I reckon it would have been good if Trek had resurrected the Klein name with the Adroit/Attitude models but instead of using alloy, they used carbon. The original models were all smooth welds and oversized tubes so it would seem fitting. Plus they could also do the bar/stem combos in carbon.
