The Eagle Has Landed: Le Prince 2011

Le Prince 2011 models have finally arrived and Joonas seems to be busy building them up. Proper promo photos are coming soon, especially The Lady is going to be so nice.

Le Prince Lady 2011 Sneak Peek

Something new from Le Prince Bicyclette, this time for all the ladieeez out there riding fixed. Black/White and Pink/White, of course, color options available from April, see more here. There really aren't that many ladies' tarck frames out there so big up! Joonas for this.

GoExpo 2011

Tnts visited to the GoExpo 2011 - bicycle fair at the Helsinki convention centre today as a guest of the Pelago boys, and and to stealthily promote KRNKY I guess. Anyway, I didn't go there because I had better things to do but I'm posting some his photos to show you the best - and the worst - fixed/single speed bikes of the event. But I will leave it up to you all to decide which is which...

Thanks to Toni for the photos.

Cinelli Vigorelli 2011 US Version

NS Bikes Analog 2011

New and slightly revamped version of the NS Bikes Analog frameset for 2011:

"Based on a customer feedback the revamped frame received a couple of new features – mainly revised geometry and an integrated seat clamp. The 2011 version also has slightly longer dropouts with extra machining. The bottom bracket has been raised and the top tube lowered.

The NS Analog fork has also been modified for 2011. It now comes with more tasty and classic looking blades, an improved dropout interface and some more weight saving machining on the steer tube. The drop-outs are now 5mm thick and the fork is slightly lighter but just as strong as the previous model."

Having test ridden the original Analog I can say it is a super solid bike and the changes made on it sound like pretty nice tweaks. However, the components of the 2010 complete were mostly pretty shitty so let's hope the new one eventually comes with bit better parts on it.

Cinelli X MASH SF 2011 Proto

Prototype of the 2011 Cinelli MASH frameset, as posted already everywhere by everyone, first here though. I agree with people who pointed out that the raw alu finish would look kinda neat, which makes me wish the Cinelli Vigorelli color-scheme would be reworked for 2011 too.

Also, there will be actually two different models next year:

"Our goal is to offer two separate Cinelli geometries for 2011. The current street geomerty, and an even more agressive track. The more agressive frame will offer some special details, and sit at a slightly higher price point for that design. 2011, and no sooner. This is the downside to instant internet information. It makes waiting, feel even longer… We are incredibly happy with the current production model, and want to offer something to a different customer with this additional adjustment.

EDIT:
Also want to clairify that this is just a raw sample frame, and we stickered it for filming. This will not be a production color for 2011."

Fuji Pursuit Model For 2011

If I got this right, the pictured bike is supposed to be new Fuji Pursuit model for year 2011, yes, not 2010 but 2011. Interesting, and there's even more...
