Hi,
I would like to share my two bikes. Sometimes I like to ride brakeless, sometimes not
The idea was to build two bikes which ride as similar as possible. The weight (and weight distribution) and the geometry is very similar (same frame, bar, seat position and so on).
I rode a Suelo V1 frame for many years and a Tango for some time. Based on the experiences with theses two frames I chose the geometry of the custom frame.
The handlebar design was inspired by the OG Cygo 2 which I really like in terms of style, but I wanted to have zero backsweep so I bought custom bars.
So far I am 100 % satisfied with the custom bars (London Bikes) and frames (PiR).
