Riamich Posted March 23, 2012 Author Posted March 23, 2012 Irina with one of her bikes. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f2/Irina_Abysova_Tiszaujvaros2011_3.jpgGummibear is the bike hot or the one holding onto it... Just a question.
Riamich Posted March 23, 2012 Author Posted March 23, 2012 I know Paul quite well and his work is awesome.The bikes are hot and his service is great. This was done for one of the triathletes for Olympics. I contacted him and within minutes he responded, only thing is cost of import duty has me worried and off course sleeping on the couch wont be nice
gummibear Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Gummibear is the bike hot or the one holding onto it... Just a question. That bike is hot but the ladies at the ITU races are even hotter
gummibear Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 I contacted him and within minutes he responded, only thing is cost of import duty has me worried and off course sleeping on the couch wont be nice Duties won't be to bad but the postage is a killer,i got a quote last year to send a frame to SA and it was 220 euros.

Jeepdude Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 am i correct in saying that it is basically the same service... they source carbon frames and custom spray them to your choice.. i would rather support Collin (local)
Jeepdude Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 He does the same as Collin does. BUT Collin does not have a Russian Beauty in his arsenal....... just a local tv celeb Riamich 1

How brilliant is this to have these beauts model your bikes.I fully support local and will support Collin any day his stuff is wicked too,
