Hello, this is happy.
The Olympics are really heating up, aren't they?
I love sports myself, so lately I've been watching them on TV when I get home.
However, I always end up finding out the results in the morning... I just can't help falling asleep, right?
I'm sure some of you are feeling sleep-deprived during this season too, aren't you?
The photo above is of a delivery we made the other day.
A neighbor living nearby purchased a brand new city bike from us.
I would have liked to include the madam in the photo along with her bicycle, but she was a bit shy. That's lovely, isn't it?
At circles, we also accept sales and repairs for new city bikes.
And on this day, we also had a frame and fork to hand over after a repaint.
The customer in this photo plans to assemble it himself.
The frame this time was aluminum and could be stripped without any issues, but because the fork was carbon and couldn't be stripped, we had to sand it by hand to prepare the surface. It takes more work than steel or aluminum items, but the joy you feel when you see a frame that has been beautifully finished (painted) is truly exceptional.
(By the way, this is the "bare" look of a different frame.)
Perhaps that's why I might have put a little too much effort into the packaging, making it look a bit puffy. But that's just to ensure it doesn't get scratched on the way home! Please come by and visit us again once you've finished building your bike.
