Eish... so Shaper lost out. Nice find! Not a frame for the steel fork IMO. Carbon would go nicely.

 

PM me - I can help with a Niner carbon fork.

Got an early Xmas present from evobikes!

 

Diadora proracer 2.0 carbon sole road shoe. Amazing shoe at a great price!

 

Bought them on sat and did 185km on Sunday with no issues! The carbon sole really makes a difference climbing and sprinting. They also lighter but could not really tell as I had a full picnic in my back pockets for the ride!

 

Much better value for money compared to the other more well known brands and are a treat to ride in!

 

Cadel won the maillot jaune in those shoes.

Gotta be good.

 

Nice!

Always wanted one of these ... now I have:)

Congrats. I've always loved that colour. Makes for a beautiful bike with a black carbon fork.

Sueshiro Sano, a ninth-generation shipwright, makes lightweight, bespoke wooden bicycles in his Tokyo workshop. His bikes, which take three months to assemble and can cost up to $20,000, use Honduras mahogany and are custom built for a 100-percent tailored fit. They’re also impossibly light — a result of Sano’s well-honed boat-building methods — and have become objects of worship, and in some cases, derision, for hipsters and bike experts everywhere. Case in point: at a handmade-bike convention in Denver earlier this year, several incredulous participants accused Sano of using carbon fiber in his designs. (He doesn’t.) But Sano, who built his first boat at 13 and subscribes to the Japanese principle of monozukuri (“making things”), shrugs off such accusations. “For me, it’s about pride,” he says. 011-81-3-5569-6567.
