Cool pic.

My instruction to the builder of my allroad bike (currently being built) was that I didn't want to regret not getting an OPEN.

haha, well lets hope he does not disapoint you

but for real, it is a hell of a bike and if I was to get a custom, I would also really worry if it was not as good as this thing. Its expensive for sure but its a hell of a machine.

R3awak3n. Best bike I have ever owned. I ride it on so many diverse terrains and it never disappoints.

dude, I am starting to lean that way. As far as gravel bikes go, by far THE BEST I have ever ridden. But what blows me away is on the road. I have been ridding this bike exclusively and have been ignoring my parlee and my English. Its that good. Also its nasty out there and the discs are amazing, salt on the road? who cares its carbon. 32 mm road tires but can go 35 so still have good road feel but floating. It is so good, the OPEN guys really knocked it out of the park.

Fat bottom tires make the rockin' world go round but some girls' tires are skinnier than other girls' tires. 28 mm Corsa g's did pretty ok on my accidentally 1/3 gravel route yesterday.

Such a beautiful bike! If you ever get to the point where it’s time to move it along, just send me a Paypal invoice and consider it sold! Haha!

Thx. Will keep that in mind and you'll see it here first if it ever goes up for sale, but wouldn't hold your breath!
