Great pics Bryan! That makes (at least) 2 QB's in western NC. What a great bike. I've been doing a lot of dirt road and Blue Ridge Parkway riding so far. Put a fixed cog on the flip side and have been riding that mostly (except, of course, on the long decent from Craggy Gardens ;^)
I'd love to ride sometime. Maybe I'll see you at the Wheel Ride for Food during the Mountain Sports Festival (http://www.mowabc.org/events/wheel-ride-for-food/). And I'd still like to drop by the shop sometime. With all the rain we've been having, my new ultimate mud flap has really come in handy! http://tinyurl.com/odw2nz) -Jay Asheville, NC On May 13, 11:48 am, "Bryan @ Renaissance Bicycles" <renaissancebicyc...@gmail.com> wrote: > While it has taken us a little while to get around to it, we finally > published some photos of the new silver Quickbeam: > > http://www.renaissancebicycles.com/gallery/ > > As I wrote about previously, this is my much anticipated personal > bike ... and I am very very satisfied.
