    TOP GUN HISTORY
    Gary Klein attempted to file Trademark status on his new Top Gun Bicycle 1989 and got stopped by Paramount Pictures
    for infringing on their new movie
    “Top Gun” starring Tom Cruise.
    as they were pressed for time, and money to fight Paramount and Gary didn't have another name in mind to call this model, his general manager came up with the name
    “Rascal.”
    the Rascal model was born and became a huge success.
    very few Top Guns were ever made or sold, making the Top Gun at the top of the list for most serious Klein Collectors today.
    No Rust, no dents No scrapes, No scratches, No Chain Rash, shows as new Please click on item description to see all 18 pictures and FULL description and sizing.
    What’s the scoop with Kleins ???
    Sure, they are the most beautiful bikes in the world to look at, smooth welds, specially manipulated tubing called "gradient" that makes these the most perfect machines ever built-in terms of delivering power to the real wheel and precise control to the front...
    Want to see more of why nothing else compares to a Klein?
    Trust me, these photos do not do it justice, but you get the idea.
    Did you know that Klein frames were welded using a special patented process at super low freezing temperature apparently this imparts something magical to the ride?
    Even the least-expensive Klein’s feature tubing and technology found nowhere else, including "gradient" tubing which begins its life as Aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminum, inspected every single foot for imperfections (bicycle industry standard is every 6 feet), and specially formed, tapered and manipulated into something incredibly special...your new bike frame! Check it out...look at the chainstays of any Klein and the differences will be obvious. Look at the headtube/downtube junction, and the way they have created a special shape for the downtube to ensure a better joint.
    The differences are everywhere...you can see them, and better yet, you can feel them when you ride. And today, you can buy a superior Klein aluminum bike for pretty much ½ the cost as the inferior Chinese made wannabes.
