Hi
ReplyDeleteGreat blog, you're really getting some use from the bike. I've got a Dawes Kalahari, nice bike, very sturdy. I'm looking to get a Karakum next, could you tell me your thoughts as you've defintely road tested it!!
I own a Dawes Karakum bought from evanscycle.com a month ago. I have cycled for more than 300km with it and I must say that what bikeradar.com wrote about it is absolutely true.
