I'll take two Bike Friday New World Tourists please
....and make that to go. ;)
Placed an order for two NWTs. It's all over but the waiting! :o Here's a basic run down of the two, one for me and the other for my wife. Seat Posts: American Classic Bottom Bracket: Shimano 105 Crankset: Shimano 105 Chainrings: 54/42/30 Chain: SRAM PC59 Front Hub: Shimano XT Rear Hub: Shimano XT Cassette: 11/12/14/16/18/21/24/28/32 Rear Der: Shimano Deore Brakes: Avid Single Digit 7 V-brakes Wheels: 32 DT spoke 14g Rims: Sun CR-18 Tires: Schwalbe Marathon Headset: Chris King Handle bar: Mine: Splitting Kalloy anatomic drop Hers: Splitting BF Touring H Levers: Mine: Dia-Compe 287V road Hers: Avid Speed Dial 7 Shifters: Mine: Dura Ace BarCon bar end shifters Hers: SRAM Attack Grip Shift We'll buy the saddles and pedals on the side. We're buying these for loaded touring and I've geared them low. From 17.5" to about 92" and if that's too low at the top I'll just throw on a bigger ring later. Capreo couldn't go this low and we won't need gearing as high as it produces. I'm not set on a color yet and will let them know in a few days. There's over 14 of them and I'm done looking at the sample photos for a while! :crash: Delivery is said to be about a month out. In a couple of days I intend to disappear from this forum so I can forget about them until they arrive. :roflmao: :beer: |
Congratulations...Bike Friday is real good at meeting their delivery commitment. Both of mine were delivered a day earlier than they said...It's worth the wait.....

Enjoy your new ride. My Pocket Gnu has been a blast since day one!
