Rickert Spezial Custom Randonneur Bike

Rickert was a famous German brand founded by Hugo Rickert in 1952 in Dortmund. His workshop became sort of a pilgrimage site for German cycling enthusiasts and for the next five decades the workoholic Rickert crafted many fine frames mainly from Reynolds tubing.

Just as our Rickert custom randonneur bicycle made of fine Reynolds 753 tubing and using lugs, dropouts and also other frame building parts from the workshop of Hugo Rickert. It is fitted with a duo of racks, which are fitted to the frame using a custom braze-ons. There is no problem to properly load them since they are very stable and do not wobble while you ride along.

The idea behind this bike is to make a classic versatile bike which you can use on the way to work just as on an epic weekend ride. And it is equipped accordingly with a mix of fine vintage and also modern yet elegant parts. Based on top level and utterly reliable Shimano Dura-Ace groupset it features also polished silver Ritchey cockpit or the tuning Chris King 2nut headset.

Fine and elegant allrounder which is perfect for someone who wants not just a stock machine but want to ride in style.
