Soma groove

[Breogan]

I know is quite new(2006), but I think it really looks like an old Kona. I keep v brakes in the rear as I have a Tioga disk drive, for special occasions. Very happy with the Microshift thumbies. I chose 2*11 as I want to have easy access to new pieces once worned out.

It's retro in concept, right down to
the slightly-misaligned bar ends

Nice bike! I like my Groove very much. Bought the frame used on spec and built unlike my Konas to be tough rather than light.

Fox fork, XT / Ditch Witch wheels, Race Face cranks, XT 10x derailleur / cassette, Avid BB7s (soon to be upgraded), Thomson stem & seatpost, Flite saddle.

And although it seemed impossibly rare in a tiny Australian country town, there's a doppelganger here . . .
