How many times do we need to be told it's a Leica? I'm in the bicycle business. I build custom frames. I'm really put off by the decals on some manufacturers bicycles. One particularly offensive brand from Italy has the name of the bike 13 times on the frame. Enough already! I'd like to have a Leica with a hot shoe but they all have the name in front. So I do without. My loss I guess. Peter Jon White
