#38: Tom Kellogg of Spectrum Cycles, Part II - a podcast by Red Kite Prayer

In the second part of my interview with Tom Kellogg, we begin with a discussion of geometry for track bikes, and while this subject may not seem super-compelling on its face, it brings in a very interesting discussion of position, weight distribution and handling geometry on the bike. As a result, it's an opportunity to hear Kellogg talk about something on which he is an acknowledged master.One of the other truly extraordinary details of Spectrum's steel frames is the fact that they make each of their own lugs, rather than buying them from a tubing manufacturer or distributor. We discuss why they make their own lugs and how Spectrum's relationship with Seven Cycles and American Bicycle Group (the parent of Litespeed) works.Tom announced his impending retirement recently, and we discuss how that's going for him and what it has done to demand for Spectrum bikes.
