amey-
Picked up Sidi Wires for cheap, but thanks ;)
andy_k - I guess not. Just seems extremely expensive for what it is. I wonder how much they're used or if they're just photographed and then sat in a garage somewhere, after the Radavist-eque photo shoot / maiden journey. The Map is like a Hummer H2 and the Dawes like an old Defender. I guess for your $4000 you do get 3 sets of bottle cage mounts.
Chris.
What's the point in those super-expensive tourers over something like an early 90's steel 531ST Dawes Super Galaxy? Has all the mounting points, fits wide tyres etc.
Starts at $4000 (frame only?):
£300, complete 531ST bike with Deore DX groupset:
