B_BLOQUE RANDONERD
Main goal was to build a road bike to enjoy the quiet (but sometimes poorly-maintained) countryside roads with plenty of comfort. Frame geometry clearly inspired by the French randonneur tradition with slack angles and characteristic, curved front fork with a long trail offering some great absorption of road chatter plus front loading capacity.
Fillet-brazed Columbus SL tubes with small diameters to prioritise comfort over performance.
Generous 700c wheel tyre clearance up to 700×40 w/o fenders.
Custom steel stem and front rack with matching front bag that gets firmly secured on top two tubes.
