’09 Crown Jewel

Owner: Eric Landes

From: Minnesota, USA

Paint: White with black lettering

Comments: The more I ride this bike, the more I appreciate it. I realize the paint job is figuratively and literally vanilla, but I wanted it to go with the bike shop’s colors. The Easton parts are great and the Dura Ace tubeless wheels have a fantastic ride.

Purchased from: Revolution Cycle and Ski

Thanks Dave. It rides great… it’s one of those things where you realize all of the talk about custom frames is true. The only real pity is that it makes me already want another one!

No that is a great weight. Too light is not necessary atmo.
