U.S. Built Custom Bicycles in Titanium and Titanium-Carbon Mix
This is Ravi’s 622 SLX. We worked with Faster in Scottsdale, AZ on the design. This photo was taken on a particularly nice day in the Southwest.
Ravi wrote us this morning to say:
Still the best ride I’ve ever had.
Thanks, Ravi. Keep making us look good.
This is Phil Cavell from Cyclefit in London. Phil is on our 622 SLX on the cobbles in Flanders, and this picture was taken on a trip to Belgium in advance of this year’s Tour of Flanders.
Phil, and his partner Julian Wall, do the fits for all of Trek Factory Racing, the team of this year’s Flanders winner, Fabian Cancellara. So, safe to say Phil knows of what he speaks, when he’s speaking about bikes.
He wrote a review of his experience on this bike for the Cyclefit site.
Here are a couple choice quotes from that review:
“Look closely at the dropouts or welds, or brake-bridge. Rob Vandermark has made Seven his life’s work and project. It is his entry into The Great Ledger. This is not a product or model or something stamped out of a mould in China. It is a mission that he judges himself upon every day.”
and…
“The ride is flawless and so it should be. Taut, responsive, nuanced and brimming with undertones of distinction.”
Thanks to Phil for bringing us along on your Flandrien escapade, for putting us through our paces, and also for making us look so good.
Raymond says, “Greetings from Reno, NV! My Seven 622 SLX is the best bike I have ever ridden! She climbs up the steep hills of Reno and Lake Tahoe and is snappy on flat roads. Pictured is my Seven 622 SLX Ultegra Di2 in ‘Swimming Pool Blue’ decals and my Boston Terrier ‘Goliath.'”
Thanks to Raymond for the kind words, and to Paul Williams at Perfect Fit for making it happen!
We built this 622 SLX for our friend Adam at Get-a-Grip Cycles in Chicago last season, but he just gave it the fresh bar tape, fresh saddle treatment, so he sent us a picture. We love the Swimming Pool Blue he chose for the carbon tubing, and the Campy EPS build out turns it into something of a show bike. Fortunately, we know the Chicago winter is coming to a close, and we expect this one to leave the showroom and get back on the road shortly.
