DARK AND LIGHT

Price €15,000 | pg-bikes.com
The bike (or rather, bikes) that Bradley Wiggins won the 2012 Tour de France on were a little bit special. They cost over ten grand apiece and came bedecked with stiff, feather-light components made from futuristic materials. And yet, by the standards of the BlackBraid, even a Tourwinning road-whippet looks a little weighty. You see, while Bradley’s bike weighs in at a shade over 7kg, the BlackBraid wafts on to the scales at just under 5kg. Woven from braided carbon fiber and using a frame design with just one seatstay and one chainstay, it’s far too light to be used as a track bike in the Olympics, where the minimum weight allowed is 6.8kg. And while its single-speed carbon belt drive might cost you a few mountain stages, it’ll drift through traffic like a wisp of smoke. As hot as… riding gravity-free through space into the heart of the sun.
