So, safe to say Phil knows of what he speaks, when he&#8217;s speaking about bikes.<\/p>\n<p>He wrote a review of his experience on this bike for the Cyclefit site.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a couple choice quotes from that review:<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Look closely at the dropouts or welds, or brake-bridge. Rob Vandermark has made Seven his life&#8217;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.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>and&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;The ride is flawless and so it should be. Taut, responsive, nuanced and brimming with undertones of distinction.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sevencycles.com\/7\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_9103.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2960 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/sevencycles.com\/7\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_9103-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"seven in front of a car\" width=\"614\" height=\"461\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sevencycles.com\/7\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_9103-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sevencycles.com\/7\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_9103-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/sevencycles.com\/7\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_9103-300x224.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is Phil Cavell from Cyclefit in London.
