Thread Reply #225 - Dec 9^th, 2012, 7:39pm After looking at the Rans site and the Oval Xstream with the orange and White scheme I realized without the orange the bike would have disappeared except for the wheels etc. Hows about "Casper".

Congratulations. By my count there are now six of us RBENTers that own one of these great bikes.

Dang! I was looking for one of those before I bought my Corsa. Kicking myself now for not checking out RBM.

Nice looking bike!

A rare find for sure. RBM would have been the last place I would have looked. That's the only Musashi with the optional blue color of the seven owned by RBENTers (I said six in my previous post, but I forgot about one).

When I got into this it seemed like a bike was bought and sold every four months. I guess if you're in the market for a certain model, you'll have to ask Joel to call you if one shows up. I had to go there later today and found out it had a short shelf life....2 days.

Denman rbent member Posts: 350	Re: W.I.B.T. Thread Reply #237 - Feb 9^th, 2013, 4:10pm A couple things this week. Two sets of Shimano M785 Hydraulic Brakes. Two sets of VXB Ceramic Hub Bearings. Four Spindles, machined from billet. They'll be fitted to the upcoming pair of prototype Triketech Touring models. May still be 4-5 months away until these are ready to ride.
