Dick: People ride brevets and randonnees on every kind of bike, including this:
https://www.bikeradar.com/news/back-pedalling-onion-man-attempts-paris-brest-paris/ <https://www.bikeradar.com/news/back-pedalling-onion-man-attempts-paris-brest-paris/> You just need a comfortable, reliable bike with a lighting system and, depending on local conditions, fenders for wet weather. Depending on preferences, riders have found that virtually any kind of bike meets those criteria. Look at the bikes ridden on PBP, and you’ll see everything from lugged steel to carbon fiber, and from traditional bikes to recumbents to stand-on Eliptigos. I’ve done PBP on a fixed-gear Quickbeam and several other bikes, including a purpose-built randonneuse from a French constructeur. It’s more fun with multiple gears. --Eric Norris campyonly...@me.com Insta: @CampyOnlyGuy YouTube: YouTube.com/CampyOnlyGuy > On Aug 18, 2022, at 1:52 PM, Dick Combs <rlc5...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Looking for opinions/thoughts on the best Riv for Brevets, 200-400K rides. > Looking for current models as well as older models.
