Bike Guide For The London To Brighton Bike Ride

Martone Cycling Co Grand Diamond

The only thing more impressive than this bike is the view from here, a lofty spot deep in the Gironde countryside.  While Ive been on a few photo shoots in some spectacular scenery, this is one of the most epic Id say well seen anywhere, from ever  though Ive yet to see how spectacular an infinite curve might look framed behind a diamond-plated seat cluster. It might not be named after a diamond, but I certainly think the colour-scheme of the Martone Diamond bike should mean it has an extra shiny layer of rims.

 The Brooklynite is another great looking bike from this esteemed US brand and is available in your choice of either white or black, Brighton Town Press (brightontownpress.co.uk). So where does the Moustache come in? Well, the powers at Martone thought it would be a great idea to break down their range and use handlebars to show you what each bike is all about. Each handlebar also has the make-up of a virtual Moustache, just incase you were wondering. Today, I am going to share my own experience and thoughts on the Martone Diamond Frame that I purchased.

This year we have introduced a range of gorgeous colours to choose from – along with two non assisted versions, one with a rear bag rack over mudguards and one both racks and mudguards.
