After giving it a lot of though I've decided to keep Rychtarski (unless I can sell it for ridiculous money) to make it into commuter/tourer type of build next winter. More like 11 speed 105 build rather than fancy DA. It will hibernate till then.
I need a racebike, a commuter trainer and a nice bike but only have space for 2 bikes so by combining racebike and commuter trainer I get Chinvelo. Principia doesent fit anywhere tbh. Cool points for lighter than CAAD10 alu frame, not gash graphics and lovely anodising.
Principia .. Cool points for lighter than CAAD10 alu frame, not gash graphics and lovely anodising.
That Principia was made around, I would guess, 2001 by the original company and is a true race frame .. nice find. I had the track version from new until I eventually sold it to Maddy on here.
