Black Cat Bicycles has arrived.
I believe it was well worth the year and a half I was kept waiting for every detail.
I once heard a story about a bonsai nursery, where parents or grandparents would commission a tree for their children.
Since you have to wait for the trees to grow, it’s an order that takes 10 to 20 years.
I thought about how there must be a tremendous level of trust there, since everything is left entirely up to the artisan.
And so, coming back to the story, that is why my Black Cat arrives today.
I had my measurements taken a year and a half ago, handed over my personal details, and left everything to them.
It suddenly occurred to me that being able to have this kind of sophisticated relationship with him and them is a treasure of mine.
Thank you, everyone.
