On October 9th, at 3 PM CET, Corsa Classic, an independent publishing house, is unveiling a 250-page limited edition book, ‘The Cinelli Laser Project – Collector Edition,’ and we’ve got a sneak peek at some of its pages. Read on for the full scoop below!
The Colnago Master might be the most iconic road bike to come out of Italy with its straight blade fork, chromed lugs and serroni red paint. Add in some gumwall tires, non-aero brake levers, and yes, white bar tape, and its hard to beat the look (and performance) of this classic machine that many racers pedaled to the podium.
As such, it brings literal tears of joy to our eyes to see Colnago still offer this dream machine in the same quiver as the new C68 road bike. No, your eyes aren’t deceiving you; it also has rim brakes and the same DNA that brought about the iconic Master. Let’s check it out.
While we’ve been working chronologically on these Readers’ Rides submissions, when I saw Samuel’s email, titled “What about shaved faces and skinny slicks?” I had to peek inside. What I found was a truly unique Readers’ Rides submission, so we bumped it to the front of the queue with words and photos by Samuel. Enjoy!
This year was to be the first year Nao Tomii of Tomii Cycles was going to attend NAHBS. For a small builder like Nao, spending the kind of money it takes to pull a seat up to the table of the USA’s largest hand made bicycle show takes a lot of financial planning, so when NAHBS was postponed this year, Tomii Cycles wouldn’t be able to attend. Most builders display customer’s bikes at NAHBS and asking his clients to wait four more months for their bikes, especially during a pandemic was out of the question. I reached out to Nao and asked if we could display his bikes here at the Radavist, so we’re doing just that…
Next week, we’re going to peer into the workshop of JP Weigle, but we’re going to share his bike first, as an introduction to those who might not be aware of who the hell Mr. Weigle is, what he’s known for, and just how stunning his bikes are. Take some time and really mull over these photos because the work of Peter Weigle is second to none!
There were so many bikes at Peter’s worthy of being shot, but there was something about this particular bike that I just kept going back to. It was the cleanest, but for some reason felt like it was the most loved. I could’ve shot the bike that Jan Heine reviewed in 2017 for Bicycle Quarterly, but there was just something about this very blue bike that had me going crazy.
