Isen workshop: adventures in batch production (or not...)

Thats the one ;)

Heh I know. I did chuckle when I saw the post on Instagram tho.

I feel sorry for Adrian...

Re: ISP, doens't it mean you would have to cut the tube pretty much exact how the rider needs it?

Matt, Caren says you need to fix Adrian's road bike chainstay.

Also I apologise to anyone that asked me a question on the Isen stand on Sunday. Having been up all night cycling I was worse than useless at doing anything other than directing people to talk to Caren.

The topper can move up and down by a fair amount, far more than you changing your saddle, cranks, pedals and so on. It does happily stop you lending your bike to people with much shorter or longer legs than you.

I just felt a bit awks with getting the finish award when the genesis (to pic one) from Rob was the maddest and best executed scheme I've ever seen, and although I do love a sick candy fade, it isnt known to be the hardest of things to pull off once you've learnt how to do it (all in the wrist lol). Just goes to show the subjectiveness of awards at these sorts of things.

Nice, one point of criticism: direct mount brake on the chainstays is stupid, Shimano makes seatstay direct mount brakes as well these days

It will be the same fitment surely? Under the bb just looks neater. FBNPNA obviously isnt the aim of this frame or it would have discs

Nope. Different brake model all together. Under the chainstays is literally the worst place to put a brake with all the gunk getting in there and with the brake force trying to pull the brake off

But it looks cool, so bugger practicality

all the gunk

Which is why it’s the summer bike.
Also you think people on here actually ride their bikes?

This^ and this^^. Its not exactly going to stop them filling their order books is it

Basically this. We have the all road for real muck, this is a full on Summer sunday best-mobile.

This is a bike for #buyers like Amey. Amey doesn't care about a small amount of puddle water splashing his dura ace direct mount brake, he will just have a full service at Bespoke and be done with it. He chooses clean aesthetic lines over fear of a bit of muck on his caliper. He choses Isen. He choses life.

Amey, pour homme.

Amey, poor homme

ftfy

The new colourways are below.

Rhubarb and custard, the leprechauns revenge and milk tray.

These are going to be available on all bikes going forward, as well as the original fades and the shadow edition.

3 Attachments

Want! Can't afford it for a long time now though... :-(

leprechauns revenge

Lol, I preferred Irish weight watchers champion colour scheme

and the shadow edition

is this a fancy way to say 'black'?

I want one ;) omg so good

Expected cost?

If you have to ask >>>>>>

If it is like my Isen build. (I have no idea how much I spent.

Sound so so true... it always end up more then we plan

Fire your cockpit setup person.

Bikes look good though.

I graduated from BB mounted direct mount brakes in 2014, this feels like a reunion and no1 is relatable anymore
