Hey everyone! Long one here as I’m trying to be as detailed as possible…
I’m selling my custom Grand Bois Randonneur 54cm. I was able to stop by Ikuo’s shop back in 2019 and build this custom bicycle.
It’s got all internal wiring (lighting and brakes), rinko capabilities, and connector-less dynamo wiring for front and rear lights. It is almost brand new as seen by wear of tire and handlebar tape.
There are a couple of small nicks in the paint that I tried to picture as best as possible (chainstay, downtube by shifters, and left fork leg).
I also had a local bike shop service the dynamo wiring to ensure all wire connections were good and maintained.
