On a related note, I'd like to see a few more people taking the plunge and having BQ / Heine approved randonneur / constructeur bikes built.
Mainly so I could test ride a couple to see if they are all that. They seem to be gaining popularity in America and I am intrigued about the fabled ride quality.
As far as I can see, Heine advocates relaxed geo with fork rake set up specifically for a front mounted bag and wide 650 / 42ish tyres with very supple casings as the sweet spot for comfort but witthout sacrificing speed.
Other than Ed's, I haven't seen any on here, and very few out and about. Does anyone have one?
