Anyone know where I could get a Masi bicycle... I want one of these http://www.masibikes.com/gallery/popup. ... N_BURG.jpg
Any suggestions welcomed? I have emailed them but nothing forthcoming so far

Carlsberg don't make cycle clothing, but if they did it would probably still not be as good as Assos0

Are the gear levers on the end of the drops? why's that?0

I'd read that part of the web page - just wondered if there were any exceptions that people knew about... lovely bike - seen it in Portland. OR0

Can anyone suggest a suitably cool looking utility bike I can get in the UK?0

The Masi your looking at is your basic touring geometry bike. Plenty of UK builders probably offer something nearly identical to that, Thorn, Condor, Bob Jackson, Mercian plus a few others I can't recall right now. Most major mfrs also offer touring bikes in that price range with similar kit and also option of alu or steel. If you've never ridden a touring bike before I'd recommend a test ride because they tend to be heavier and slower steering than most road and city bikes but of course for touring they're the best choice for their stability.sonicred007 wrote:Can anyone suggest a suitably cool looking utility bike I can get in the UK?0 -

Just realised you were asking about Masi NOT Massi. Sorry if I built your hopes up :oops:0 -
I read your second comment before looking elsewhere - thanks0

I've ridden a aluminium hybrid over too many miles and want to find something that's much more comfortable... I like the retro look of the Masi - which I guess is akin to Merican and Bob Jackson... also been looking at Dave Yates0 -
The Condor Heritage is a very nice bike at a good price.0

Nice... I already got a Squadra from them... bet the lead time is alot0

How about this in grey?
Looks similar but not checked the spec,though I have defintiely seen them them made up with higher specs by other retailers.

I'm pretty sold on the Condor Heritage in red right now... thanks for tip off
Do you think that will be solid enough for front panniers as well as rear ones? Or is it a light tourer?0
