You guys don't like it now, then Jumelin will ride it, and everyone will get hyped as f*ck on it..

That's how these things work.

it's funny how flat companies seem so intent on undermining their own business operations by not strategically releasing information like this. Why would people buy a Paris now when the company already has the next one coming up? Dumb, and another reason why our industry languishes the way it does.

I totally agree. The current Paris frames just arrived in the USA THREE days ago! I am definitely upset with KHE.

^ its really silly though the Paris is near perfect as it is why not just beef the DT gusset up abit if thats a problem like lift the down tube and put a Sunday bikes style Down tube gusset? its kinda silly they're gunna lose sales on the V.1 because people will want the V.2.

There are only 100 Paris 1 made, aren't they all sold out yet?
The second one is just plain ugly, I'm glad I ordered the older one, besides, the weight is the same.

i think the second version is much better.
it has more space above and below,why do somebody say it looks like phantom?
do they know who designed the phantom?

same reason people are gonna buy a delta 3 when there is nothing wrong with the delta 2. or the g7, or the delta 1.

you get my point?
