I bought a Klein Performance frame two years ago when he
first came out with his "mass produced" budget priced
frame. I ended up buying the complete bike from him
when, as we talked frame sizing, he convinced me that
I'd not find the components cheaper.

Without an exception, Cannondale owners come over to
look at the Klein and start comparing wheel stay length
and tube diameter and weld finishes and paint finish
and weight and color. Gary Klein invented the welded
aluminum frame, argued its merits, and developed the
manufacturing methods and still produces the standard
against which the others are measured.
