    I had a 'curly' - ordered it from Jack Kirk, in Ferensway - in 1961. Campag, Mafacs, Fiammes. Loved it...

    Mine was a 1962, delivered to Jack Kirk in the spring of 1962 according to the Hetchins registry.
    It would have been nice if it had been curly.....

    Allegedly helped reduce 'whip' (side movement when accelerating?)
    Looking at most carbon bikes now they have multi shaped stays to do all kinds of 'magic' aka marketing
