This looks great… It is not yet on the Dolan website but I have no doubt that it will be pricey Carbon goodness. Mo info as it comes.

See more on the TFG Flickr.

Tomorrow I post another drool worthy geared bicycle from this period and I am currently thinking it is going to be a 1988 De Rosa 35th Anniversary museum piece, but for now we just drink this in…

You know that every last detail on this frame has been meticulously thought out and it has truly paid off, just look at the seat cluster – Could you possibly get it more spot on?

I think I have just found my new favourite brand.

Apparently this beast of a frame was “A high school design project” in 1990. Damn, all I got to do was make wind powered cars out of used shampoo bottles. How the other half live!

Good looking whip though and certainly wouldn’t look out of place today and also reminding me of these:

Fuji 2010.

September 23, 2009

I have always been a fan of Fuji bikes and the 2010 offerings do not dissapoint.

From ‘semi’ monocoque Carbon on the ‘Elite’ to pure cr-mo steel on the ‘classic’ Fuji have all bases covered. My personal favourite has to be the Track Pro ( second one down ) – Sh*t looks tight as hell and I would absolutely love to rip it!

I can’t really see too well in the pictures but what cranks do the ‘Pro’ and the ‘Comp’ have on? I quite like the look of them so… Answers on a postcard please.

H plus Carbon.

June 9, 2009

hplussoncarbon1

H Plus Son has made a mark for themselves over the past year with their 42mm deep aluminum rims, one of the deepest section rims available until Velocity released the B43 just a few weeks back, which is just killer millimeter deeper. Shown here is a prototype H Plus Son Formation Face rim with a carbon overlay applied to an aluminum shell. The aluminum versions are lighter than the B43 by 150-200g, there is no word however on actual weight, price or if the carbon version will ever be available for retail purchase. hplussoncarbon2There is no doubt that the H Plus Son rims are lookers, attracting attention no matter what with the carbon version upping the ante as far as exotic rims go. Time will tell if there will ever be more than a handful of this version out in the world.
