But this video from the Streetfilms.org folks [...]

Cafe speed compared to Giro-20?

Wednesday, 09 September 2009 05:42

This was a question asked on our forum and we thought we’d respond here so we could share some pictures. The Giro and the Café have about the same speed potential because they share the same wheel set and their seat to bottom bracket differential are virtually the same.
