Richard Sachs Cycles
On graduating from high school, Sachs spent close to a year in England as an apprentice with Witcomb Cycles. He returned to the United States and in 1975 began building frames under his own name. He spent over 30 years building lugged steel bicycle frames and forks in Chester, Connecticut. He builds 80-90 a year.
He has since moved to Warwick, Massachusetts to continue his craft.
The Origin of ATMO
Acronym for "according to my opinion." Originally an inside joke between Richard and his close friends, it quickly became Sach's signature closing. An easy way to poke fun at people's opinions or his own in online conversation.
