Pipedream Skyline R931 Stainless Steel

Call me crazy, but I am having a love affair with Steel Mountain Bike frame. After building a Reynolds 853 Scion and then recently managed to complete the Reynolds 853 Sirius for my wife.

I was told that Pipedream is launching a 100pcs only Reynolds 931 Stainless Steel Frame. The frame is below 4lbs for my size. I just want to be the owner of a piece of fine steel workmanship. Only 100pcs. and it is only GBP1200. I WANT ONE!!!! That's all I can say.

A cut out from July Issue of Mountain Bike Rider from UK

Sirius Riding....???

Well well, I finally took my dearest wife for her first real mountain bike ride...and seriously or siriusly...the bike proves to be very responsive and hardy. But one issue here...the terrain is too daunting for her have the full confident to do it.
 After "Baptism of Mud", the Sirius is ready to roll!

Silly me! I should have know this is way too hard for her. After much trying and deliberation and of course fuel with a fair bit of frustration, we finally found one route that is moderately challenging for her to finish. Thank God! We managed to get things going and she eventually told me that she enjoys it.

What a day out with the new bike!
