From ``AFFINITY CYCLE'' based in Brooklyn, New York, USA, ``LO PRO'' and ``METROPOLITAN'', which continue to be called masterpieces, have arrived in Japan for the first time in two years.

The prestigious "AFFINITY CYCLE" has users in a wide range of genres, including messengers, street riders, and even track racers.

For those of us who run a fixie bike shop, AFFINITY frames are indispensable.
Having said that, it is popular, and production is not constant, so it is rarely on the shelves at all times.
One of the great things about AFFINITY CYCLE is that for some reason I feel attached to it even though it's such a rare item.

Although it hasn't been released yet, for the first time in two years, we have immediately prepared a custom bike in METROPOLITAN "Lilac Breeze", a color limited to Japan.

Purple is beautiful, but also has a little pop.
Since this is a domestically limited color, the size range and number of items in stock are very limited, so if you are interested, please order as soon as possible.

This customization was customized by the creator himself with the concept of ``contrarian''.
Let's take a look at what parts we chose.

Inspired by NJS frames, METROPOLITAN customizations typically include SUGINO or SHIMANO cranks.

However, VISION.

Handle: DEDA ELEMENTI CRONONERO LOWRIDER

Stem: DEDA ELEMENTI SUPERZERO STEM POB

When METROPOLITAN was first introduced, the column size was 1 inch, so I remember that slim and stylish handles and stems were often used.
Recently, column diameters have become oversized, so it has become standard to use MTB stems and handlebars.

However, DEDA.

PHILWOOD LOW FLANGE TRACK HUB Black x F-RIM

ZIPP Service Course SL SEATPOST

From the beautiful silhouette and appearance of this frame, we tried using silver parts for the rim and seat post, and used gloss black aluminum parts to create a classic customization, which is typical of METROPOLITAN.

However, carbon.

Solid parts construction without any roughness.
It feels comfortable and easy to ride even on long rides.

We chose parts that are not often used for MERTOPOLITAN, but the silver spokes and the radial construction of the front wheel are a good compromise.
Although the concept is contrarian, the customization is surprisingly complete.
People who can do this kind of thing are people with good taste. lol

By the way, the staff member with good taste is our BOSS, Junki-san.
It's been two years since we last saw it, and this time they put their skills into customizing METOROPOLITAN.

Now, including METROPOLITAN, LOPRO also has this much in stock this time.
To be honest, there aren't many of them.

There are two days until sales start, but advance reservations have already started, so please contact us first.
