Connie’s Rodeo Labs Flaanimal 5.0 (54cm)
When Connie first came in to visit us they had a clear idea in their mind that they wanted a solid, swiss army knife of a bike. This beauty was what we came up with in collaboration with Connie, and we love it.
The chosen drivetrain was none other than the elite level Campy Ekar 13 speed group. Such a beautiful, well-designed group. It paired beautifully with this Flaanimal and its designed intentions. The design concept truly went into the no-holds-barred world of Campagnolo, a whole new category of cool.
You’ll also see that a custom built Pacenti + Bitex + Rene Herse wheelset is featured. This in turn gave this bike a light and fast rolling ride. The bike was topped off with a PRO Discover + Specialized Power Comp cockpit that not only kept the cost reasonable, but also reduced overall weight. These high-quality choices look pretty darn slick too! So performance and comfort isn’t compromised, and neither is style. It was a win-win all around!
Finally the finishing touches were the mix and match Wolftooth headset, SimWorks Sim Drops bar plugs, and Ciclovation Phoenix Red Chameleon bar tape. All of which really added that awesome personal flair which is always cool to see on our clients builds.
We hope you love the bike as much as we do Connie!
This build was Spec’d by Matt, Build by Nick, and Photographed by both Jeremy and Matt.
