The Syncroneur was also one of our show bikes for the year 2025, which we showcased at the Bespoked Handmade Bike Show in Dresden. This bike presents my idea of a modern, high-performance randonneur bike, made from the very best available Columbus tubing and equipped with modern, state-of-the-art components. The 13sp Campagnolo Ekar groupset is ideal for fast riding, since the high gears have very fine steps, while the cassette still offers a super-wide range and very low gearing for hard climbs on long and exhausting randonneur rides. Other than that, the bike is equipped with just the best of the best parts available out there, such as the infamous Beast cockpit bar unit, Beast seatpost and wheels, running smooth and fast on 42 mm x 650B René Herse tires, Mono unit carbon saddle, Velo Duo carbon fenders for dry rainy rides, SON hub dynamo–powered super-bright B&M IQ-XL Highbeam headlight, Allygn EdelMü taillight, and Acros headset. The unique paint scheme is inspired by Kristin’s beloved VW Syncro T3 bus and was perfectly executed by our friend and frame builder Jacek Orlowski.
Happy riding on this one, Kristin!
