 At the beginning of January 2007 Robert Carlier and Emmy Bezemer started their journey which began in New Zealand. Their long bike ride will eventually end in India, but a large number of other countries will be visited too. Their site www.verslotenzolen.nl is definitely worth while to visit regularly! The pictures which are available already can be found via the link below. | ||

M5 sidepull brake rear wheel updated! |

) To provide more space for the right calf of race cyclists the now well known M5 side pull brakes have become even more compact. The outer cable has also a better guidance by arriving at the brake on a ten degrees angle. | ||

Carbon rims further optimized |
January 6th, 2007 | |
) There's always a bit of turbulent air current caused by the never optimal connection between rim and tyre. Therefore we made a tiny cut-away directly below the brake surface, which makes the airflow stick more to the rim surface.As shown on the picture we do not need to use transparent coating, thanks to the way we produce the rims. This prevents adding unnecessary weight and gives a very smooth finish. | ||
