A friend told me that Matthew G was working at a Berkeley shop maybe as
recently as two years ago.
I think it was Velo Sport, but don't quote me on it. Also, I notice there's
a Kogswell Yahoo group still going:

There was a brief arc of them into the Gallery and I have one ride-
buddy (JimG - yojimg.net) who owns a gen2 P/R (the last effective
model from Kogswell).
The Kogswells in the Gallery can be found here:

There was a KOG-specific for a while,
Didn't the early lugged models also come in an extremely limited number of
sizes, like 54cm and 58cm only? Only a good deal if they fit you

I am the very happy owner of a model P60. Also a remorseful seller of a
D58 and a F58.
Now that I have learned my lesson, the P won't be leaving my stable. The
first two Kogswells were the D and F, essentailly a deraileur and fixed
version of the same bike in a lovely kustard and black paint.
Ahhh Memories...
Two of my rides right here:

Maybe 6 or 7 years ago, Matthew from Kogswell gave me one of these in the
same size for free. I think the MSRP was $750 or $800 then, sort of a
budget Rambouillet. It's not my size, but I hung it on the wall of my shop
for a couple years. Finally I took it to a swap meet in Madison with every

I've never ridden one. I doubt that very many actually exist. At the time,
Kogswell had numerous models listed, none of which seemed to actually be
obtainable. I would guess that he had maybe 50 or 100 of each model,
distributed across various sizes, before he moved on to the next model

That was a Model P (Kogswell historians, please keep me honest). I rode a
Kogswell P/R (Porteur/Randonneur designed by Jan Heine) for about a year or
so. Mine was part of the Gen 2 production run, which used slightly
thinner tubing than the Gen 1 P/R. Mine had a very cushy and compliant
So what am I missing? Isn't 275 and freight paid a steal on this frame or
is it to common?? Looks like a much more expensive frame than what it's
being sold for.
