Momsen 29er...in Reynolds steel :)

Recommended Posts

I built one for a guy a while ago. I always bang on about weight not mattering on a steel SS but the frameset was quite heavy. I have a myriad of steel SS bikes and frames and this one was heavier than any of them by some margin. Just an observation. It rides wonderfully and looks so neat and tidy. The simple lines and understated graphics are classy.

 

Wont be adding one to my stable, but I definitely think they are better than their On-One counterparts for very little more moola.

 

Great value for money

Hopefully my build will be ready by the end of today, if the LBS does not encounter any snags. Transplanting as many as possible serviceable parts over from my outgoing bike to the new 'electric-blue' Momsen steel frame. New tapered Reba fork. Carrying over my old Brooks saddle, Mary Bars fitted with comfort grips as well. Business Lounge on two wheels.

 

Build complete, maiden ride done and dusted, still smiling.
