Hélènes Randonneuse
Hélène came all the way from Turkey to pick up her new companion: a modern randonneuse with a few classic touches and in splendid color.
It's never easy to find polished / silver components these days, especially in smaller sizes. So thank you Velocity for those great Aileron rims and Spécialités TA for a custom narrow wide chain ring.
Wheels are as usual built in-house with a SON dynamo and Hope Technology Ltd rear hub. Perfect all-round Rene Herse Loup Loup pass tires. Transmission is a Sram Rival 1x11 and brakes are Juin Tech R1s hybrids. Cycles Berthoud made the saddle, fenders and bar tape in Bourgogne, France. The rest is Ritchey Classic and a light Salsa Cowchipper carbon handlebar (client's choice).
Hélène will be riding in full autonomy even longer distances with the "Forumslader" charger integrated in the fork steerer, SON lights and a beautiful set of TIM TAS & REK pannier U-Loop bags. All cables are neatley tugged away. All fender rear lights on our bikes come with a connector at the bottom bracket to easily take off the rear fender. The beautiful paint job was done by M-Level.
