Customer's Bike Check from the Netherlands

We sometimes receive inquiries that customers wonder how we ship a bike if they bought from our website. As I mentioned previous blog, all of bikes we have been selling are assembled by experienced mechanics, and we carefully pack and ship them. 

The customer from the Netherlands consulted with us on each individual component and entrusted us with the customization. This time, we would like to introduce a customer's bike along with some fun photos he sent us. The photos show how the bike was assembled, so we hope it will be a helpful reference for your own orders. 

DOSNOVENTA Los Angeles Frameset $1,090.00 USD

Los Angeles is DOSNOVENTA's top seller. It can be considered a multi-purpose bike, as many riders around the world have chosen this frame for commuting, street riding, and racing. Of course, the flame alone already offers a high level of performance, but the customer's carefully selected components takes this Los Angeles to an even higher level. I'd like to highlight some of the parts that I personally found especially impressive. 

He’s chosen to unify the seatpost, handlebar, and stem with components from Ritchey. Among them, the stem stands out as particularly interesting.

RITCHEY WCS CHICANE. According to the RITCHEY, this stem features a hinged clamp with two rear-facing bolts, providing both aerodynamic benefits and a sleek appearance. I have built many bikes for customers both in Japan and overseas, but this was my first time I've installed this particular stem. 

BROTURES SHRED60 CARBON WHEEL $920.00 USD (F/R sets)

As I mentioned the previous blog, a carbon wheel with excellent vibration absorption and high-grip tires - it's a solid setup.

This rim height offer a nice balance, and it reminds me of the DSNV®106 wheelset I. This is my personal preference, but rims that are too tall don't quite match the aesthetic DOSNOVENTA frames. In my opinion, the ideal rim height should align with the width of the bike's downtube.

When it comes to the drivetrain, there is no room for compromise. The SUGINO SG75 CRANKSET is one of the best choice for cranksets, It's NJS-certified and trusted by many professional track racers. Additionally, he chose the EURO ASIA SUPERSTAR cog. It's well known for providing smoother chain disengagement compared to other manufacture's cog. The combination of a high-quality chainring and cog results in an exceptionally smooth and  comfortable ride.

We hope this special bike enriches his fixed gear life even more. Thank you for providing the photos for this bike check blog!
