without looking to check, it looks similar to the alu framed bikes you two used on your last trip, is it the same company? This one has that slightly curved main frame tube behind the front wheel, it seems to my memory that your previous bikes had that also (plus, this looks like it has the same drivetrain setup too)
cheers
why the change? More for fun to try out a new setup?
Hi @
djb, no it's a different company (Avaghon from
Bike4travel) and it's a steel frame. First time for me riding a steel bicycle.
And the other one with the curved main frame tube had a Pinion P1.18 drive system. We are now back to using a Rohloff hub again. But, for the first time we have disc brakes.
Mine is even prettier (this one is Elmar's), but I haven't taken a photo of it yet.
The other bicycles were 'borrowed' and we had to return them to the company, that's the reason for the change.
Cheers!
