Heinz Paupitz, Berlin, Germany built bespoked frames for amateurs as well as for many professional racers. Anyhow he and his name were little-known all over the years and are still to this day. Characteristic for his work is a filed notch in the seat lug and that the frame number is identical to the client's birth date.
