ENVE Garmin Mount | Modifications

Posted by Elite Custom on

Project E.22 by Elite Wheelworks

Posted by Elite Custom on

Posted by Elite Custom on

I'm not allowed to post photos of the bike show because I'm being contracted; my meetings are strictly confidential, but here's a little bit of Shanghai while I was out.  I did make some new friends during my spare time in the night.

Its a little tough locating them because they are located within a block and their entrance is in a private carpark....
