Exactly a year ago today, the Langma followed me home. 5,000 kilometres later, it is going in for new components today.

A year ago, I took the Avail Advanced for a quick test ride. It was nice and comfortable. Then, for shits and giggles, I took the Langma for a quick test ride. Holy moly, I couldn’t believe what I was feeling–there was barely any weight to the bike, and each pedal stroke transferred to moving forward so efficiently that I could barely feel the small hill I was riding up. I was torn for about 3 seconds, and knew I would have way more fun on the Langma.

The bike inspires me to ride. It’s always telling me to climb higher, ride longer, try harder. There’s just something about it that just begs to be ridden.
