お久しぶりにバイクチェック更新。近頃、作業が溜まってしまって紹介が遅くなってしまいました。。"NISHIKI"のイケてるミキストフレームを持ち込み頂き組み付けさせて頂きました。パーツチョイスと色合わせがセンス溢れてますね。とても素敵です。ハンドル周りはこんな感じ。"Riv Bike"感ある渋いハンドル周りが今時っぽい。それをこの"NISHIKI"でやっちゃう辺りがわかってらっしゃる。。。また"CAMP AND GO SLOW"のバーテープが抜群に似合いますね。雰囲気最高。現在はコロナの影響もあって生産が結構遅れちゃってるみたい。次回入荷はまだ未定。分かり次第インスタで報告します。ダイナモライトをインストール。今回の組み付けのコンセプトとしては「コストを抑えながらもカッコ良く」との事でフロントハブとダイナモライトはコストパフォーマンスを重視して選びました。ハブはシマノの"Nexus"をチョイス。シーリング構造が優れていて雨にも強く気兼ね無く使える。価格も6000円くらいでとても良心的。日常で使うコミューターには丁度良い。ダイナモライトは"busch+muller"の"IQ-XS"をチョイ

One thrifty bicyclist scored big by buying a 1981 Peugeot touring bike for a mere fraction of what these rides retail for today.
I have a special place in my heart for mixte frames. Specifically the French style sport mixtes where the lateral stays meet on the top tube. There are a lot of fun details that a framebuilder can incorporate into the mixte design. In the past, I’ve done unique rear brake cable routing inside the top […]
Exploring the paths down by the water.
A reader emailed me a question and gave me permission to answer the question in a blog post. Here is her question: Love your blog -- you're a woman after my own heart. ♥ But clearly more educated than me. What I mean to say is, I'm a naive casual cyclist but mean to become an everyday cyclist. I care about function but I also care deeply about aesthetics (as you also seem to), as I am a designer by trade. I don't currently have a bicycle as I was laid off (in 2009) just as my bike was stolen. :( (
