I look up at the cold, sleet-filled sky since this morning with a weary sigh.
Ah, right, the cycling crowd too.
Yes, the ones who don't get weary.
Rawland
Olaf RawColor
650b SingleSpeeder
¥168,000 (Complete Bike)
Huh! Still feeling weary?
Coming all the way from Michigan, this is an extraordinary, unconventional frame.
650b? Single Speed? No Disc Mount?
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...
It’s a nice frame that makes you hear someone asking, "Who on earth is going to build that up!"
Well, we built it.
Rim: Velocity Dyad
Tire: KENDA Nevegal 27.5″
Drive: Most of Shimano
Brake: Tektro Canti Brake
Wow, wow, it's actually quite nice.
It has a unique presence.
I actually rode a Sycip 27.5" before, and I remember how fun it was because it had a great sense of balance.
Looking at how manufacturers who missed the 29" boat are now desperately trying to catch up, this is a standard you can expect big things from in the future.
And then, since genius Shimano-kun is making some noise, a quick update.
Shimano Alfine
Internal Rear Hub 11S
The Alfee are breaking up. (False)
Alfine is going to be 11-speed. (True)
Shimano XTR M980
Shimano's MTB components are all scheduled to become 10-speed.
Naturally, there will be a double front crankset available.
You fanatics out there want to go to all sorts of places, don't you?
It doesn't really matter if it's 1 gear, 10 gears, or 11 speeds, but I'm reporting this because it's guaranteed to be fun.
Oh right, the RawLand.
It’d be cool to throw an Alfine on it, too.
The little gimmicks in the details are cute, and the component selection is reliable.
Of course, we'll keep the consumables in stock, so you can rest easy on that front too.
Hurry up and take me home.

Laugh off the cold.
