the question for me is..a new dolan frame..or this...hmmm...new dolan...or this...
ponders
New Dolan frame, and then slowly spend ££££s building up a bike made by a fierce headbutting thug, with skinny tyres that won't like those potholes, against a rather unique frame that will eat up speed bumps, parklands, riverside tracks and that small space under the stairs? And from Saturday, none the less, no waiting around for all those bits you forget at the end of a build, straps, brake blocks, bar tape...*
Is there really any comparison?
*This bike does need bar grips, unless you want the 'folding Sir Chris' bare bars look
