Nearly finished Enigma Etape. Just waiting from a set of handbuilt wheels from Paul Hewitt. This bike is already far better than I am a rider!





That is very very beautiful.

I do like that.  Nice slack seat angle to match the Brooks.

Nice bike, Mikezilla.

I did giggle at this, but not until you pointed it out.  ;D

I saw Mike's new Peregrine in the flesh today...

It is indeed very pretty - even though it weighs a ton!   :P
