A visit to the wonderful Bicycle Maru yesterday to photograph a very cool recently customised Panasonic road bike...
A complete cockpit change from drop bars to a set of Nitto swept back bars and Dia Comp brake levers and wooden grips...
Real nice custom touches throughout, San Marco saddle...
And a Rindow Bullet Light on the rear...
Not forgetting a very special signature on the seat tube...
A pair of Straitline MTB pedals complete the build...
A unique bike at a very unique shop. You can follow Bicycle Maru via their Instagram and Facebook pages. Or if you happen to find yourself in Nara then it's a must visit for any cyclist.
We also shot a rather nice vintage Cinelli Supercorsa yesterday too, those pictures will be posted here soon.
