Rapha Pop-Up Los Angeles

Anyone been to the pop-up in LA? Going to be in town next week and wanted to see if it is worth making a stop at.

It's worth finding your way to Abbot Kinney and then popping into Raphas as a bonus.

Abbot Kinney is the most interesting commercial district in Los Angeles.

If you make it down there and like sushi, go to Hama Sushi. It's just around the corner on Windward and it's REALLY GOOD.

Went to the shop over the weekend - good spot and as beeatnik said, it's on a great street. Didn't get anything, but the GM there (Brett) was very welcoming. Chatted about bikes (he had a great ti IF in the shop) and riding in LA vs NJ (he has experience in both spots). That spot has potential if they plan on staying long term.

Brett's a great guy and his IF is completely drool-worthy. The pump and 7900 crank always call to me for some reason.
