There are a number of threads here in C&V regarding the genisis of the Specialized Allez and Sequoia. 3Rensho was an early builder of both bikes to specifications designed by Tim Neenan for Specialized. The 3Rensho built bikes are highly prized for their finish, workmanship, and innovation. There are a number of elements that signify the 3Rensho build - a unique offset fork crown designed by master builder Yoshi Konno, characteristic style and fine hand filing of the lugs. The 3Rensho brand is literally based on the Japanese Keirin racing 3 stages of victory.
