It's been a few years since I updated this site. My latest bicycle is something I've thought about for several years but until Velo Orange came along it really wasn't feasible. While I still use my Romulus for touring/commuting this bicycle is superior in almost every aspect. The lugs are thinned and there are many nice details on the frame, the lighter weight tubing makes the bike fell much more responsive and comfortable (I really can feel a huge difference over the Romulus, which was running the same wheelset/tires), proper attachments for fenders and racks (no zip-ties!). The frame is setup for internal through-the-downtube wiring for a rear generator-powered light but the lighting system won't come together until the new Schmidt eDelux is released. These photos were also posted on the Velo Orange blog on May 1st.
