Wow- what an immensely beautiful bike!!!! When I first looked at it, I had to REALLY look because there was so much beauty to take in. I love the super adjustable stem, and the little details. The Rohloff hub seems like a great idea (and when a bike weighs in that heavy, who cares about a little extra?).
Congrats on your new ride. I hope you get many, many happy miles and memories on it.
I'm sure it's just visually deceiving, but why does the reach on the stoker seem soooo much longer than that captain?

V - that is one SWEET looking tandem! When are you and Thom bringing it to Maine so we can ride and see it in person (although our Chrysler glod Cannondale might get a complex...).
Congrats. Can't believe how beautiful that is!

We're going to Maine/Vermont this summer. Not sure which bikes we're bringing. We are doing a tour of the gaps in Vermont. Some of those do get a little steep I understand, so we may bring the singles.
Oh and the color... it's the same as our Subaru.
