I'd guess the reason you don't see too many Blitz frames is because it's damn expensive...

CAnt quote on cel...Ultraman Z,yeah Blitz r expensive,however they have been brough by some riders cause Matrixs has checked and now in FF they only have Blue color.Maybe should make a thread to post pics of these rare frames.John,G8?Yeah it was mine.No 990's,Only reason why i traded it.Still would eventually like one w/990.Or just go G9.

I still have mine. I haven't been able to ride it as much as I'd like lately but its still solid. I picked it up the day they came back from powdercoat at Quamen. It was one of the very first ones.

Here is my G7 that I traded to Ultraman Zoffy for a Gamma (thanks Ultraman Zoffy.  That was a fun bike.)  All of my Quamens have had mounts.

I am intersted in their frames. From what i gather, they have a good feel and are made in the U.S. I have read much on this site about the dropouts bending. Does this happen on all models? From my reading I got the idea that the Clad G9 was their top model, yet the Cypher is more expensive on FF. Is that expense due to its low weight.
