Wish List!
April 10, 2008 by jamilynnfitz
I was doing a little “fantasy” shopping today, and I thought I would post my wish/want list here, mostly for me, but also incase anyone that reads my blog also happens to be looking for a gift for a girly biker such as myself. If I can ever figure out how to post pictures, I will include them here for the visual shoppers… So here it goes:
Orbit
This is the bike I ride the most. It does it all. Where I live it is mostly dirt roads and everything is either up or down. This frame is designed around what is known as the “cyclocross” frame, meaning it has great mud clearance for knobby road tires, but it handles and rides like a road bike. It can slip down single track yet rides like velvet down dirt roads. It is generally built for comfort and backroads exploring, but I tighten up the geometry for those wanting to race it in actual ‘cross events. A sloping top tube is standard for clearance and comfort.
