Corbs,

There is some seriously tricky joinery going on with that machine. I looks fantastic....love the curves.

I would like to know how it rides. I have a carbon fibre Pinarello; smooth as silk to ride. I wonder how that machine compares? When you get older you need comfort whist you are being punished.

I would be interested to know what it weighs too.

Thanks for the interesting post.

Anthony

I'm in love. That's what I want. I'm an urban commuter, so the Pandurban commuter (http://www.renovobikes.com/pandurbancommuter/)looks beautiful to me.

There's some quotes on Bicycles.net.au (http://www.bicycles.net.au/forums/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=18283&p=252842&hilit=renovo#p252842)

US$1950? I'd pay it, but Minister of Finance would throw it out...

[QUOTE=Luddite;1016485]Corbs,

-From Renovo 'A customer who also owns a Pinarello said of his new Renovo 'Absolutely stunning!!'. After 100 miles said 'I love the ride' and after 800 miles, 'It's a great ride.'Comparing his Pinarello to the Renovo, 'both bikes very smooth on chip seal, the Renovo is much quieter, the Pinarello is lighter--feels almost skittish', and finally, 'Thanks for producing a great frame.'

Frames weigh from 3.5 to 4.5 pounds.
